Sisi
Sisi is a mother of seven children who weaves kiekie (a traditional Tongan belt worn by women at special occasions) to support her family. She uses hibiscus and coconut materials to weave intricate patterns into the kiekie belts, and local women purchase her products at a market in her village.
The Studio is helping Sisi purchase a large batch of materials so she can produce more belts for the markets, enabling her to create more income for her children's education.
