Since each of these nativity scenes is hand-painted from hand-cut recycled steel drums, every one is unique and is signed by the Haitian artists who are proud to have created it. 

Haiti has experienced so much turmoil from political revolutions and natural disasters, homelessness and poverty, and too many other struggles.  These nativities speak of the resilience and perseverance of not only the Holy Family, but also of the Haitian people.  And that makes a very purpose-full purchase.
