Silver Springs Youth CBO was started in the year 2001 and was formally registered with social services. It has fifteen members drawn from the four administrative divisions of Baringo North; Kabartonjo, Kipsaraman, Barwessa and Bartabwa. The members are all professionals from various fields.

Our mission is to have a just society through capacity building of the young generation through formal education.

Silver Springs Youth CBO has two broad aims:
•    To alleviate poverty through capacity building
•    To reduce girl-child suffering, dropouts and absenteeism due to lack of basic necessities

We have been operational at Barwessa division for our first five years and it was in the year 2007 that we covered the whole district of Baringo North advocating for the girl child education through sanitary towels campaign in conjunction with the Ministry of Education.

Silver Springs Youth CBO has so far undertaken various projects like:
•    In 2005 undertook a KHADREP program (advocacy and awareness of HIV/AIDS on Youth) with National Aids Control Council
