"loveeeeeee thank you!! @topicals," she captioned her story.

The skincare brand's founder and CEO, Olamide Olowe, became the youngest Black woman ever to raise more than $2 million in venture funding. She received a $10 million financing round from CAVU Consumer Partners on Nov. 10, 2022.

Furthermore, Olowe was also listed in the 2022 Forbes 30 Under 30 list after she raised $2.6 million. Founded in 2020, Topicals donated more than $50,000 to support nonprofits to help bring change to marginalized communities by providing mental health aid, according to a report by Forbes.

Crump, who secured a NIL deal with Klutch Sports, the agency led by LeBron James' agent Rich Paul, expressed her gratitude for their support of her community outreach initiatives. The 6-foot-1 shooting guard shared a picture of the sweatshirts and shoes that she received on her Instagram story:

"thank you for continuing to support my community giveback! @newbalance @klutchathletics," Crump captioned her IG story.

“It’s an unbelievable honor for me to become the first high school player and first female athlete to join the Klutch Athletics roster,” said Crump in a conversation with NIL Newstand.

“In many ways, this is a dream come true for me to join a brand that is having such an impact on sport, culture and community. The product aligns perfectly with my needs and my style, and I’m thrilled to start the season in it.”
