My cousin Kay Seppala has been crowned this year's Hankooki Heikki for the Heikinpiv Festival: https://www.pasty.com/heikki/hankooki.html
She has a dance group for children called Kivajat who will travel to Finland this summer to perform. They could use some financial help for this endeavor. Kay also does lessons on both a 5 and 10 string kantele. For more info on her dance group and info about supporting their trip to Finland, check out this website: http://michiganfinnish.org/index.php?page=kivajat Go Kay! Go Kay! Woo hoo! That's my cousin!
