The program was assisted by some limited donor funding over the years including support from CARE International, <strong>and</strong> SIDA as well as SLCDF giving support to some <strong>of</strong> the organisations. Over the years the village organisations grouped together at both the divisional <strong>and</strong> district level eventually having a national organisation. The CAP program is no longer managed by any agency or funded by any donor though some limited linkages exist with Rural Development Training Institute (RDTI). According to the Federation the growth in membership, savings <strong>and</strong> other donor funds is as follows. Currently 68,000 families are estimated to be members <strong>of</strong> CAP groups <strong>and</strong> save with them. Though there was a drop in membership from 1995 to 1999 for some inexplicable reason membership appears to have grown in again in the year 2000. The total saved <strong>and</strong> available from donors for credit is estimated at SLR 90.5 million.
