Why “Querencia”?

We decided that it was time everyone had a "Safe Place". Something they can not only be a part of, but be proud of. Something that represents unity and let's everyone around know: WE ARE NOT ALONE. This something is Querencia. When you see this symbol, you should feel at home, comfortable, safe; you should feel as though you are enough - because YOU ARE.

"I just want to be my authentic self and I needed a safe place, so we created one - for all of us."

Edith

Born and raised in Ponce, Puerto Rico, 29yo Army Veteran who graduated from Pennsylvania State University - Abington Campus with a Bachelor's Degree in Criminal Justice & Psychology. Her & Angie decided to start Querencia, a clothing line designed, produced and created for people like them. As part of the LGBTQIA+ minority who never seemed to be able to find a "safe" place - we wanted to bring a clothing line that represented who we were, who we wanted to be and let people know that we were not going anywhere.

After meeting and becoming friends with Edith, she helped Angie build her confidence and understand that there is nothing wrong with being who you are. Regardless of how you dress or who you love, at the end of the day, your heart is the same.
