Dolls for dolls!
Two years ago, Hannah Liongoren and Gabie Osorio sought our help in promoting a cause: to teach children to rediscover hope and creativity through doll-making. And so Mistula teamed up with the organization that is now known as Manikako. Because who can better lend a hand to a group of dollmakers than the country’s first doll band?
This Easter Sunday, we fulfilled our promise to Manikako and the children who continue to create their own dolls and dream of a happier future.
Click on Manikako Manx to visit our updated site.
You, too, can help Manikako by downloading our new song on Overplay.com for a small donation. Every download will help fund free doll-making workshops for children whose difficult circumstances do not afford them to be empowered by art lessons.
Find out more about how a virtual band reaches out to the real world on Mistula: Revelations.

Screencap his pic and save it in your computer then. If you choose to post on your website, be sure to link back to Mistula.com.

I can’t screencap it, it’s too much light, I think. Oh yeah, I remember. Someone wanted your picture from the site too, Uno.

Please wait until the wallpaper page is updated.

I’d be glad to wait, Uno. How many months does it take for it to be updated? I’m amazed by the changes. Good job to all of you!

My hospital hours are up, and our tour of the hospital is done. I’m looking forward to meeting my patient. =)
But I’m stopping by to say I love the update. The band’s Manikako versions are so kawaii (did I spell it right? x_x). And I love the track– it’s just awesome. You own me.

Oh, thank you so much for taking time to listen to the new song! I hope it cheered you up. Tell your patients about Mistula and Manikako!
April 15th, 2009 - 19:12
It did me wonders. Thanks. And I will definitely spread the news. =)

Thank you very much!

Dude… I want to download it… By any chance, can we donate cash directly to the point person and not through online transaction?
I love the song, it’s wonderful. I loved hearing the collaboration with the kids. It makes everything so much lighter than what Mistula normally has.
And the back and forth exchange at the end between Manx and the kids.
<3 Good job skurvs, seriously. props.

Thank you, thank you, Anj. You make all the hard work so worth it. ♥
We wish you would download the song from Overplay.com! It’s more fun that way.

I love the song!

Aaaah, Mistula you’ve done it again! This song is so calming and uplifting to just listen through again and again on repeat. Thank you for helping our spirits rise this Easter. ♥
The method of distribution is so wonderful and generous too! When I saw the update I immediately tried to go download the song from overplay.com, but after filling out all my billing information I got an error message twice in a row. Boo! I want to help out Manikako too!
Thank you Mistula and the amazing support network behind the band for bringing us lovely music and for giving something back to those who need it most. *HUGS*

MOLLY, WE LOVE YOU. ♥
We’re awfully sorry for that hassle on Overplay! Joey sent you an email awhile ago. Hopefully, we can get this sorted out for you immediately! Thank you very, very much for always supporting Manikako and Mistula. We’re so happy you liked the song!
Oh, there’s someone here who wants to say hi.
TERRANOVA: Hi!
There she goes. Have a fantastic day, dear Molly!

I love the new song! So different from the usual Mistula stuff but still so awesome. I will download it now.
And I want my Manikako Uno! How do I get one?
