Anne Guerrant played tennis on the pro tour for 9 years,
ranking as high as #11 in the world.  She played at
Wimbledon, the US Open, and all the major tournaments.  
Her record includes wins over Martina Navratilova and Billie
Jean King.  She traveled all over the world and was
humbled and moved by the extreme poverty she saw in
third world countries that most people only see on TV.   In
2005 she and her husband, Terry, visited a micro credit
lending program in India.  They were truly inspired by the
dignity and ambition of the women entrepreneurs they met.
They started the Guerrant Foundation to help women and
families improve their lives through tiny loans to start
businesses.  They take no salaries from the foundation.
After much due diligence they decided to support the Grameen Foundation and Opportunity
International.   Please visit their web sites to learn more about their innovative and very
effective programs around the world.  Since they began their fundraising and personal donations  
in mid-2006, they have helped over 7,000 of the world's poorest people to start businesses. 100%
of donations made to the Guerrant Foundation are passed through to either the
Grameen
Foundation,  Opportunity Internationalor Grameen de la Frontera in Mexico.  TERRY AND ANNE
GUERRANT WILL MATCH DONATIONS UP TO $100,000 IN 2008.  You can also make donations
directly to these organizations. The Guerrants' goal is to personally give a million dollars and to
raise another million for this desperately urgent and important cause.  They take no salaries from
the foundation.  To make a donation click on
