Gladys Erude Organization to Host 2026 Memorial Run Honoring Late Radio Icon
The Gladys Erude Organization continues to uphold the legacy of the late Gladys Erude through its annual Gladys Erude Memorial Run, held in honor of the celebrated radio broadcasting icon.
The late Gladys Erude was a respected figure in Kenya’s media industry, widely admired for her dedication to radio broadcasting, her philanthropy, and her role as a loving mother. Her passion for community service and positive social impact remains the driving force behind the organization’s work.
The 2026 Gladys Erude Memorial Run is scheduled to take place in September 2026. The event brings together individuals, organizations, and well-wishers who share a common goal of giving back to society and transforming lives.
Funds raised from this year’s memorial run will be used to:
- Renovate and improve schools across Kenya
- Organize free medical camps for underserved communities
- Support and empower women from marginalized and underserved communities
The Gladys Erude Organization is calling upon well-wishers, partners, and the general public to donate and support this noble cause, helping make the 2026 memorial run a success and extending Gladys Erude’s legacy of compassion and service.
