Poverty is a problem of global society. Indonesia also faces the same problem. As a developing country, the poor population in Indonesia is also relatively large. The Village Fund was initiated by the government to become an excellent program that is expected to eradicate poverty. Since it was implemented in 2015, until now there have been many problems related to the Village Fund program. This research was conducted to analyze the supporting and inhibiting factors for the effectiveness of village funds in alleviating poverty. This research used descriptive qualitative methods, with data collection techniques through observation, in-depth interviews, and document searches. From the research conducted, there has been an increase in infrastructure development in the village through the Village Fund. However, infrastructure improvements have not been effective in reducing the number of poor people. This is driven by the large allocation of village funds for infrastructure development rather than allocations for activities that directly impact the improvement of the people’s economy.
