on: If there is one doll I like, it’s a manikako. Manikako means “my doll” in tagalog. As simple as it may sound, a ripple of volunteerism was already heard for the project.Manikako is the flagship project of ArtHOC (House of Comfort Art Network), a non-profit organization that focuses on art as a powerful source of empowerment. Inspirational and hopeful dolls are packaged in a design-it-yourself kit, so you can customize the doll to your liking. For every successful manikako booth, selling a D-I-Y doll kit, proceeds immediately fund free art workshops to poor kids.Right now, Retaso mo, Manikako! the campaign is ongoing. Donations boxes are located in RCBC (3rd Floor), Ateneo Manila, U.P. Diliman, Lourdes School and Your Masterpiece (Libis). Just donate fabrics, old clothes, ribbons, sewing materials, old carton boxes, threads, needles and other accessories. All of these will give life to a new Manikako. ^_^
