Bella, as she likes to be called, won the National American Miss Ohio Jr. Teen in July. She started "Bella's Buddies" in 2021 as a way to encourage people to be kind to one another and make a difference.
"Just get involved any way that you want or any way that you can. That's all up to interpretation, honestly. You can do whatever you want. Like, I really like giving back and working with homeless shelters. I think that is an amazing opportunity to get involved. It's just an amazing feeling to see everyone smile when they get things that they need or want. And other people don't realize how simple it can be to give back," said Isabella Etzkorn, 2024 National American Miss Ohio Jr. Teen.
"Do Good. Together" is Isabella Etzkorn's platform that she is taking to Orlando for the National American Miss Jr. Teen in November.
