Literacy and numeracy skills are fundamental competencies that play an important role in supporting learning quality and the development of students’ cognitive abilities. However, low reading interest and the suboptimal utilization of learning facilities remain challenges in developing a learning culture at the elementary school level. Based on these conditions, this community service activity aimed to improve elementary school students’ literacy and numeracy skills through strengthening a supportive learning environment and developing sustainable learning habits. The method applied in this activity was a participatory approach consisting of several stages, including identification of school conditions, program planning, implementation, and evaluation. The activity was conducted through a Literacy and Numeracy Movement program consisting of several initiatives, including the establishment of reading corners, reactivation of the school library, a 30-minute reading activity before learning (30 Minutes Booster), and the implementation of numeracy learning media in the form of multiplication tables. The results of the activity indicate that the program successfully increased student involvement in literacy and numeracy activities through the provision of learning facilities and more interactive learning methods. In addition to improving the school learning environment, the activity also encouraged the emergence of reading habits, more active utilization of the library, and increased student awareness regarding the importance of literacy and numeracy in daily life. This program demonstrates that education-based empowerment through strengthening literacy and numeracy can serve as an effective strategy for developing a sustainable learning culture.
