ABOUT THE PRESTON HOLLOW WOMEN'S CLUB

Bringing together women of Preston Hollow since 1979.

A welcoming, neighborhood-based social and philanthropic organization dedicated to building community and fostering friendship.

Who We Are

The Preston Hollow Women’s Club (PHWC) was founded in 1979 by a small group of neighborhood moms who saw the need for friendship, support, and community.

Today, we are more than 400 strong, offering Special Interest Groups (SIGs), speaker series, social events, and philanthropic opportunities to women living within the LBJ, NW Highway, Central Expressway, and Midway Road boundaries in Dallas.

Jennifer Bienstock-Cohen, President (2026–2027)

Jennifer moved from New York to Texas in 2020 and quickly fell in love with her new home. Jennifer is a lawyer, volunteer, wife, and mother—never in the same order on any given day. She brings her passion for community and service to PHWC, with a focus on ensuring that every member feels welcomed, valued, and connected while supporting the continued growth of the Club.

Our History & Growth

What began as a grassroots group of neighbors has grown into a robust organization with over 400 members in recent years. From SIGs and speaker series to hands-on community projects, our goal has remained the same: to connect, uplift, and contribute.

Over the decades, we’ve supported local schools, hosted fashion fundraisers, provided school signage, sponsored playgrounds and park projects, and funded classroom improvements across Dallas.

Philanthropy in Action

Our philanthropic focus for 2026-2029 is Assist The Officer Foundation (ATO), supporting first responders and their families across the DFW Metroplex.

ATO provides financial assistance for serious injury, illness, or death; confidential counseling for first responders and families; and support designed by first responders for first responders.

PHWC is honored to support those who protect, serve, and care for our Dallas community.

For details, volunteer opportunities, and updates, please visit the Philanthropy page on this website.
