Being an open and positive advocate for the queer community, one has to take a leap and shed their skins- and show their wounds. Share and tell their stories in hopes to inspire others.

We often shy away and avoid these type conversations because we were taught to.

Here in Sarilaya, we created a safe space, a honest avenue to the queer community to express their stories truthfully that most people are afraid to talk about.

Chapter 2, out soon.🌈✨

The progress has been significant from where we were, decades ago. Up until to this day we still strive- and will continue to keep striving to make an impact, to provide a safe space and amplify inclusivity for everyone to be bold, confident and free.

"𝐒𝐚𝐫𝐢" comes from the word '𝘬𝘢𝘴𝘢𝘳𝘪𝘢𝘯' which means one's freely chosen gender identity and '"𝐥𝐚𝐲𝐚" comes from the word '𝘱𝘢𝘨𝘭𝘢𝘺𝘢' that equates to freedom. Fused together, it means the freedom in choosing one's gender identity and sexual orientation. We aim to help young queer individuals to embrace their true selves and spread education, ample knowledge about the colorful, complex and beautiful world of sexual orientations and gender identities- and ultimately, the beauty of embracing it fully.

Our goal is to be the beckon of hope and light into becoming their best, bold, unapologetic and free self amidst living in a world that challenges us to not to.
