Who we are

A generation refusing to watch its home dry up.

Green Advocates was born from a simple conviction: young people are not too young to lead. Across Baringo County we grow trees, mentor students, protect water sources and speak up for our environment.

We work with schools, local leaders and volunteers to turn concern into action, one seedling, one student and one community at a time.
