Kim Hamilton is at it again! With her famous caramel apples, she is raising money to help a single mom in the Dominican Republic have a home.

Pictured here with her daughter, Kamryn, Kim Hamilton has become a
beacon of hope for families in the Dominican Republic, raising funds
to build homes for eight
families
through her
famous gourmet caramel apples. Her handcrafted apples
aren’t just delicious—they’re life-changing. Each sale helps provide
essentials like doors, windows, and roofs for families in need.
🍎 Apple Home #9: A Sweet Surprise for Janeirys
Kim’s caramel apples are building more than homes — they’re building hope.
Meet Janeirys
She’s a single mom in the Dominican Republic, raising two boys
with love and grit.
Janeirys
works at the Casa Blanca restaurant to provide food, clothing, and
education. She pays rent, childcare, and transportation — all while
attending university. She even borrowed money to buy land, dreaming of
a home she could build herself.
Why Janeirys?
Because she’s the kind of woman who lifts others while carrying
her own load, Kim saw her resilience and chose her for Home #9 — a
quiet gift for someone who never asks, but always gives.
We love to help those who help themselves.
Let’s wrap Janeirys in the love she’s earned. And to sweeten
the pot, the first $ 5,000 donated to this home is being matched by an
anonymous donor!
Please
help today! Of course, your donations are eligible for a charitable
tax receipt.
Here are some of the homes that Kim has raised funds for with her apples!!
