The Desert Club uses all of the proceeds to benefit scholarships for graduating seniors and grants for organizations helping women and children in the Valley. And a different Valley family donates their home for the Christmas Idea House every year.
On top of holiday items for sale, there are several raffles donated by the family who owns the home, including a seven-day trip to their San Diego condo. Christmas Idea House tickets are available online.
