HAPPY SMALA IMPACT FUND (HSIF)
Catalytic Blended Finance for Impact Entrepreneurs
About
happy smala has supported over 5000 impact‑oriented organizations and mobilized over 5 million dirhams in funding, providing program design, deployment and evaluation support to Moroccan companies, public institutions and third‑sector actors while offering strategic studies, coaching, mentoring and training to emerging entrepreneurs.
Building on the 12-year track record of happy smala, and the successes of the EU Funded “Impact Together!” project, happy smala is establishing a new non-profit entity dedicated to providing a national blended‑finance mechanism to bridge Morocco’s impact ‑finance gap for early-stage, revenue-generating social enterprises.
