The Heart Behind SanPhil Legacy
Kricia Jones, Founder | Nurse | Advocate for Families
SanPhil Legacy Foundation was founded by Kricia Jones — a registered nurse, community builder, and lifelong advocate for families.
Raised in an underserved community, Kricia witnessed firsthand how unstable housing and limited resources shape the lives of children and families. Those early experiences shaped her deep commitment to service and fueled her passion for creating lasting change.
Through her work in healthcare and community support, she saw the same patter repeated everywhere she served: families didn’t just need temporary help — they needed stability, safe homes, and real opportunities to thrive.
SanPhil Legacy was created to meet that need.
Today, Kricia leads with a clear mission: build strong foundations for families, strengthen communities, and create lasting stability for generations to come.
Service isn’t just what I do — it’s who I am.
Because strong families build strong communities.
