Village Fund Allocation has a strong economic leverage. Strengthening the village economy is very strategic. The empowerment of rural communities can help improve village welfare. By 2016 the central government has raised the amount of village funding allocations. This strategic program is done by cross-ministries, Ministry of Village, Development of Disadvantaged Regions, and Transmigration (Kemendes PDTT), Ministry of Finance and Ministry of Home Affairs. Village Fund Allocation Program is a program that aims to improve the welfare of rural communities and the quality of human life and poverty alleviation. This program still needs a lot of improvement, both in terms of implementation, process, and results to be achieved. Program improvement has better program development objectives. Techniques of data collection used interviews, questionnaires, document studies and observation. The evaluation model used is the CIPP model (context, input, process, product) developed by Stufflebeam. This model is taken by the research team because it is considered most appropriate to evaluate an ongoing program. The results showed that, in the context of this program is good, while the input still needs improvement, especially in the field of program and work schedule. In the field of process, there is still much to be improved especially on environmental protection and conservation. In the field of product there is a good increase in the construction of village facilities and infrastructure, maintenance of village roads, while the energy management, village tourism development, and maintenance of clean water village scale is still less optimal, so it needs to be strived to continue in the next budget year goes well .
