Hippo Lending and Smile Train

In January 2021, Smile Train proudly welcomed Hippo Lending into their family of Corporate Partnerships. Over the course of the 2021 calendar year, Hippo Lending will donate $250 to Smile Train for every loan they issue to new clients, with a guaranteed a minimum donation of $25,000.

Through their sustainable model, Smile Train partners with and financially supports medical programs across the globe to help children in need receive the world-class cleft treatment they deserve. That deep focus on strengthening health systems and training medical professionals makes Smile Train and Hippo Lending natural partners. As a financial lending institution focused solely on supporting medical professionals, Hippo likewise serves as a financial resource to medical practitioners here in the United States.

Justin McCarthy, Smile Train’s Senior Director of Corporate Partnerships shares,

“As an organization dedicated to offering a range of clinical training opportunities and resources supporting surgery, anesthesia, nursing, speech therapy, and other forms of comprehensive cleft care to medical teams around the world, Smile Train intimately understands the power stable financial support and working capital have to strengthen both health systems and health workers. Hippo Lending does, too. That’s why we are so pleased to welcome them into our Smile Train family of Corporate Partnerships and look forward to creating a positive impact in the lives of children, together.”
