CRP's work is financed from four main sources:
Donations from overseas or Dhaka-based representatives of foreign agencies
Donations form local sources
Income from commercial projects
Contributions from services users

CRP is fortunate to have a large base of supporters overseas. Often these supporters have visited CRP and got to know the work it does for and with disabled people. Friends of CRP groups have been established as registered charities in the UK and in Germany. Together, these groups contribute substantially to CRP's operating costs as well as being a convenient way for supporters in Europe to donate funds to specific projects. Crucially, these groups provide a sustainable source of funding as there sole purpose is to provide support for CRP.

Large donor agencies also provide avenues of funding for CRP. Currently CRP receives funding through DANIDA (Denmark) and the United States Department of Labor, Liliane Foundation (Netherlands) and Kerk in Actie (Netherlands). Agencies in Dhaka with overseas links also provide funding. These include CIDA (Canada), British High Commission, German Embassy, Australian High Commission and Manusher Jonno.

Local donations play an increasingly important part in CRP's funding. Businesses and individuals contribute generously to CRP and with it gain a sense of ownership for CRP's activities. CRP's business consortium is a group of prominent business people who meet every three months to discuss ways to increase both the support for CRP and the efficiency of its operations. Members of the business consortium also provide invaluable logistic and professional support.

Income generating activities (IGA) is an area which CRP places great emphasis on. Projects include the sale of plants, fish, handicrafts, furniture, greeting cards and rental of guest house accommodation.

Many of CRP's service users come from very poor backgrounds and cannot pay for the full cost of their services. CRP operates a three-leveled system of payment in which those who are able to pay the full cost do so, those who can contribute some of the cost pay a percentage of the costs and those who are very poor pay only what they are able to afford. Users are means tested by CRP's social welfare staff who decide on appropriate levels of payment. User contributions are an important source of finance and help CRP to operate in a fair and transparent fashion.
