In many cases, CAP sites are manned by volunteers from the community,
who work towards self-sufficiency for the site. A CAP site derives its
revenue by a combination of community service offerings such as renting
computer time, workshops, seminars and Internet access, usually for
bare bones fees. Please support your local CAP site!
