On Thursday, August 21, 2025, they held a training session on making aromatherapy candles from used cooking oil in RT 11 RW 2 Notoprajan. The activity was attended by 25 enthusiastic housewives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The training aimed to educate participants on the importance of managing household waste. With a touch of creativity, used cooking oil, which is often discarded, can be processed into products that are not only useful but also have economic potential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The head of KKN Group 72, Fiqry Alfarabhi, explained that this activity is not only beneficial for the environment but also opens up opportunities for small businesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWith simple creativity, waste can become something valuable. We hope that the women can continue to develop this idea and even create creative economic products that have market value,\u201d said Fiqry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the participants, Tari, expressed her excitement. \u201cUntil now, used cooking oil was simply discarded. Through this training, we learned that used oil can actually be transformed into beautiful and useful aromatherapy candles,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Field Supervisor (DPL) of UNISA Yogyakarta&#8217;s Community Service Program, Bdn. Siti Arifah, S.ST., MH, added, \u201cThis activity not only increases knowledge, but also provides new skills that can become business opportunities for the community.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This training is a tangible example of cross-program collaboration carried out by UNISA Yogyakarta students. Through this initiative, it is hoped that the women of RT 11 RW 2 Notoprajan can become pioneers in waste management, fostering a more self-reliant, creative, and productive community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"539\" height=\"428\" data-id=\"22128\" src=\"https:\/\/www.unisayogya.ac.id\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-154928.png\" alt=\"Screenshot 2025 10 21 154928\" class=\"wp-image-22128\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.unisayogya.ac.id\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-154928.png 539w, https:\/\/www.unisayogya.ac.id\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-154928-300x238.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 539px) 100vw, 539px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Students from the Community Service Program (KKN) at Universitas &#8216;Aisyiyah (UNISA) Yogyakarta Group 72 once again demonstrated their creativity in community empowerment.
