Katie Stam was crowned the first Miss America from the state of Indiana in the pageant's 88-year history. During her year of service, Katie worked extensively with Children's Miracle Network as the National Goodwill Ambassador, visiting dozens of children's hospitals across the country, raising millions of dollars and promoting the organization during numerous speaking engagements.
