Dauphin's Safe Grad Committee is making big strides in supporting students even after they graduate. 

A cheque was presented yesterday afternoon at Dauphin City Hall, where the Safe Grad Committee handed off $15,000 dollars that will go towards funding scholarships for post-secondary students.

Seth Crowhurst was one of the students presenting the cheque, and he's happy to contribute.

"It felt like it was a community thing, a little bit of everyone helping out, and we just wanted to be a part of that."

Owen Dandeneau was also one of the students presenting the cheque, and he notes there was a lot of hard work going into these funds.

"The main one was the bingo we did, and we did a spaghetti fundraiser going to the local schools giving out spaghetti."

The money will be going to a general scholarship fund to support a wide range of options for students furthering their education.
