In July, Dunne launched The Livvy Fund at LSU, in partnership with Bayou Traditions, to help female college athletes connect with brands to land Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) endorsement deals.

In the same month, she inked her own NIL deal with the sports energy drink Accelerator Active Energy, joining the list of other notable athlete ambassadors, such as NFL stars Jalen Hurts and Travis Kelce and MLB star Aaron Judge.

Now, Dunne has created a partnership with her fund and Accelerator Active Energy to deliver a first-of-its-kind NIL deal to several of her gymnastics teammates, including Konnor McClain, the reigning all-around national gymnastics champion, along with Ashley Cowan, Jillian Hoffman, Chase Brock, KJ Johnson, Haleigh Bryant, Sierra Ballard, and Kiya Johnson.
