CHV’s Exciting Collaboration with Smash + Tess 

In the spirit of Women’s History Month, we’re thrilled to announce a partnership that embodies the values of women’s empowerment, community support, and the celebration of local businesses. Covenant House Vancouver (CHV) is joining forces with Smash + Tess for a special weeklong promotion that will not only bring you fabulous fashion but also contribute to a great cause. 

We’ll dive into the details of this partnership and how you can get involved. 

CHV: Empowering Communities and Supporting Youth 
At CHV, our core mission is centred around the empowerment of communities and the provision of vital support to the youth in Vancouver. We are dedicated to making a positive impact in the lives of young people in our community, to ensure that they have access to opportunities and resources. 
 
Smash + Tess: A Community-Caring Brand 
Smash + Tess isn’t just another clothing brand. They are a brand with heart, dedicated to the well-being of the community. This commitment is evident in their ongoing support of CHV youth over the years. Their generosity has touched the lives of many, bringing joy and hope to those who need it most. Their ethos aligns perfectly with CHV’s mission and values, making them the ideal partner for this collaboration. 
 
Women’s History Month: A Time for Empowerment 
October is a time to commemorate Women’s History Month. A time when we honour the achievements of women throughout history and work towards a future where women’s empowerment is not just celebrated but actively supported. That is why we are thrilled to be partnering with Smash + Tess, founded by a dynamic mother daughter duo — Ashley (aka Smash and the daughter part of the duo) and Teresa (aka Tess and the mother part of the duo). It’s a perfect time to celebrate the women who make a difference in our lives, our communities, and the world, like Smash + Tess. 
 
Exclusive Weeklong Promotion 
To mark this special month, CHV and Smash + Tess are offering an exclusive promotion for our community. From October 15–22, use the fundraising code: RWR-COVENANTHOUSE on any of your purchases and 20% of the proceeds will go directly to CHV, to support our mission of empowering youth and strengthening the community.
