Kenya Jones

Kenya Jones, the visionary Founder of The Exodos Group, embodies a fierce dedication to fostering transformative change within our communities. Her unwavering commitment to service is not merely a choice but an integral part of who she is. With a rich tapestry of volunteer experiences across 14 diverse programs—including the South Suburban Literacy Council, University of Chicago Medicine, and the Boys and Girls Club—Kenya has cultivated a profound understanding of the challenges faced by those in need.

For Kenya, this is a calling that ignites her passion for empowerment and social justice. Through her extensive involvement, she has developed deep empathy for individuals and families, illuminating the often-overlooked needs within our communities.

She stands resolute in her mission to dismantle the stigma surrounding poverty, believing that every success story is a step toward a brighter future. By championing the potential of each individual, Kenya aims to prevent and eliminate homelessness, fostering a culture of resilience and opportunity that transforms lives and uplifts entire communities
