✨M E E T Jennifer + Blanca of @2locasbrand ! These two met at the University of Arkansas where they both were part of a multicultural sorority called, Gamma Eta. Since then they have remained Friends and started @2locasbrand . . . "We felt there was a need for our brand because we wanted to make apparel that represented and embraced our Latino Culture. We want our kids to grow up knowing their culture and to be proud of who they are, especially here in the NWA. We started as a tee-shirt company and with that, we have met so many people who have been supportive of what we are doing. We want to help build a community within a community that is underrepresented. We want to be a bridge within the Latino community and have partnered up with local businesses for different events to spread our message! We are glad we have each other to go through this journey with. We want to show others that women can work together. Be open to find a like- minded woman to help you reach any of your goals. Don’t forget to shoot your shot, you never know what could arise from it. We are excited to see where @2locasbrand will take us!" . . Jennifer + Blanca , you two are amazing! We are here to cheer you on! #NWAGG #nwagirlgang
