Inspired by our all-time best selling Giving Angel, the Giving Cross comes with a unique handcrafted upcycled cross, a story card, a blank piece of banana paper, and a cotton drawstring bag. It is the perfect reminder that "Love won't leave us, no matter the cost. On earth as it is in heaven."
The Story:
This Cross rose out of the dump...literally!
Brilliant women in Gonaives, Haiti, use locally sourced clay as well as discarded, broken plates from the dump, clean and shape them, and create these Crosses!
This artisanal work is a major part of their family's income!
And they remind us all that where one story ends, a 2nd story awaits!
