The Pacific Palisades Woman’s Club is a non-profit organization. Since 1925, PPWC members and supporters are a central and active part of the philanthropic culture of the Pacific Palisades neighborhood. PPWC has acted as a lead local funder in the community since the Club’s inception. The historic Clubhouse (located at 901 Haverford Avenue behind Gelson’s) is an essential resource in the Palisades since 1951 and provides the community with a meeting facility serving over 1,000 visitors weekly.
In addition to being home base for the Woman’s Club, the Clubhouse is the community-gathering place and home to over 114 local groups including children’s dance classes, etiquette classes, senior tai chi and the weekly meetings of local support groups. PPWC members enliven the community through annual fundraising and giving to local charities including our treasured sports, school and arts programs. PPWC has given back over $1,000,000 to local community organizations. For information on membership, contact ThePPWC.org
