"I got the idea of making hygiene kits because I watched Governor DeWine and Dr. Amy Acton talk about what people are going through," Bela told WCPO. "It was shocking." This isn't Bela's first entrepreneurial idea: She already owns her own business, Bela Butters, which sells lotion and cream to keep hands soft. Now, in light of the COVID-19 crisis, she's expanded that business into a larger, philanthropic effort with the mission of keeping hands clean.
