Motivational Speaker & Singer Known as The National Anthem Girl; First to Sing the National Anthem in All 50 States; Founder of The Medal of Honor Mail Call
Janine Stange Biography
Janine Stange is a motivational speaker, singer, and on-air personality recognized as The National Anthem Girl, the first person to sing the national anthem at a major event in all 50 states. Stange undertook this mission to honor members of the U.S. military, performing at venues including boxing rings, Major League Baseball stadiums, hockey rinks, NASCAR events, NFL fields, and unconventional locations such as donkey basketball tournaments, car show tents, and a site known as the Center of the Universe in an Idaho mining town. She completed her journey by singing the anthem before a Tennessee Titans vs. Minnesota Vikings game at LP Stadium in Nashville.
Stange’s journey was inspired by personal loss and a desire to raise awareness for military service members. After her mother's passing, she began her nationwide anthem project as a tribute and a means to support the troops. Stange organized and financed her performances independently, culminating in a performance in Baltimore to commemorate the bicentennial of "The Star-Spangled Banner" at the location where Francis Scott Key witnessed the flag that inspired the anthem. Her story is chronicled in the documentary "National Anthem Girl" by Kelly's Filmworks, available on Amazon Prime and Apple TV.
Stange has appeared on major television networks and national news programs, including the TODAY Show, Fox & Friends, NBC Nightly News, and Fox News @ Night. She is also a regular contributor on Sirius XM's 60's Gold with Phlash Phelps. In addition to her speaking and media work, Stange became the first person to sing the national anthem every hour for 24 consecutive hours to raise funds for a military charity.
Stange collaborates with nonprofit organizations that support military personnel and their families. She is the founder of The Medal of Honor Mail Call, an initiative that collects and distributes letters, postcards, drawings, and paintings from Americans to Medal of Honor recipients. This program provides opportunities for students, businesses, and individuals to learn about and express gratitude to the nation's heroes. In one campaign, Stange gathered 12,000 personalized letters for recipients.
In her keynote speech, "Discover and Honor Your Mission," Stange shares insights from her 50-state journey, discussing challenges, goal-setting, and lessons learned. She has addressed audiences ranging from Fortune 500 companies to public schools, emphasizing citizenship, service, and personal responsibility.
