Abstract

This research aims to investigate the allocation of village funds and direct cash assistance on the welfare of communities in several villages in Sidoarjo. A quantitative approach was employed in this study. A total of 100 respondents who received direct cash assistance were selected using purposive sampling method. Data collection was conducted using a structured questionnaire. Data analysis was carried out using multiple linear regression analysis with the assistance of the SPSS program. The findings of this research indicate a significant contribution from the allocation of village funds and direct cash assistance to the improvement of community welfare. This implies that both programs have a significant impact, both partially and simultaneously. Thus, the results of this study can provide a deeper understanding of the importance of managing village funds and providing direct cash assistance in enhancing community welfare at the village level, as well as offering a basis for more effective decision-making concerning resource allocation and development programs.
