Maja Murić

In 1993, Murić represented Croatia at the 1993 Mediterranean Games, where she claimed two gold medals, including one earned with doubles partner Silvija Talaja.

[2] Murić represented Croatia in women's doubles at the 1996 Summer Olympics, where she and partner Iva Majoli reached the second round before losing to the Spanish team of Arantxa Sánchez Vicario and Conchita Martínez, 6–2, 6–1.

[4] Murić's youth in a war-torn nation, combined with the opportunity for international travel provided by her tennis career, motivated her to become involved in charitable activities.

She has spent 15 years working with the Little Star Foundation, a non-profit established by fellow former tennis professional Andrea Jaeger, serving as that organization's Treasurer.

[4][5][6] In 2006, she co-founded Humanitarian Wave, 501(c)(3) non-profit organization focused on helping children and adults living in poverty, suffering from disease, abuse, and neglect.
