The following people, organizations, and businesses have been essential in the ongoing success of Malley Farm for Women.
A special thank you to Eastern Propane, Chinburg Properties, and DF Richard Energy
David & Karen Della Penta
David and Karen believed in our mission when it was but a dream back in 2015. They continue to champion our cause each year with a large financial donation via The David T. and Karen Della Penta Charitable Foundation. Their support and generosity help to provide our women with a safe and healing farmhouse.
From helping us furnish the house prior to opening the doors in 2015, to sponsoring our golf scramble, David and Karen have assisted financially, emotionally, and spiritually. It is difficult to put into words the level of support that David and Karen have provided over the years, collaborating with us as mentors to make this home a beautiful, blessed success.
Malley Farm for Women would like to extend our deepest gratitude to David and Karen Della Penta.
New Hampshire Charitable Foundation
The New Hampshire Charitable Foundation’s New Hampshire Tomorrow initiative is a program created to increase economic and social mobility for young people in New Hampshire. The Charitable Foundation provided us with a $10,000 grant for a generator, allowing us to remain safely in the house no matter the weather! Our generator is a prized possession, and we are so very grateful to them!
Since 2024, the Foundation has awarded Malley Farm for Women $65,000 through the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation’s Thomas W. Haas Fund. The funds were used for electrical, plumbing repairs, siding, painting, and programming.
The New Hampshire Charitable Foundation is a statewide community foundation, managing a collection of nearly 2,000 charitable funds created by generous individuals, families, and businesses across New Hampshire. They award more than $60 million in grants and scholarships every year.

Kristen & Jeff Palleiko – Curio Museum Design
In 2019, when our old website went down, we googled local web developers and happened to call Jeff Palleiko. It was 10:30 on a Saturday night and he answered. Within minutes, Kristen and Jeff were both looking into the situation and trying to find a solution.
Within a day, our contact forms and donation links were working again. Within a week, we were up and running with a brand new, beautiful website. We are so grateful to Kristen and Jeff for all of their hard work in recovering, repairing, and redesigning our site. We especially want to thank Kristen for all the attention and care that she put into the SSR website, and again in 2024 when she designed our new logo and website for Malley Farm for Women.
Kristen owns Curio Museum Design, and Jeff is owner and creative director of Blackfly Interactive. They live and work together in Rollinsford, New Hampshire. They both love cycling and you can often find Kristen riding in the trails that surround Malley Farm!
