This literature review aims to document the link to enhance university-community engagement while developing community service programs that build on university students’ community service initiatives. The increasing focus on promoting strong relationships between universities and local communities has highlighted the need for effective strategies that bridge the gap and enhance cooperation. By analysing a range of scholarly articles, research studies, and related literature, this review provides a comprehensive overview of the key factors, challenges, and best practices in developing community service programs for university students. It highlights the importance of providing students with the skills, knowledge, and attitudes necessary to engage with diverse stakeholders and meet community needs. The study method is based on analysing the students’ results in the practical assessment with the community. The results of this study showed that the achievement level of students improved positively when they immersed themselves in community volunteer work.
