Recognizing Distinguished, Inspirational and Accomplished Mothers
RMA is a Canadian event that celebrates and recognizes the remarkable mothers in our community. Our one-of-a-kind Awards and Gala honors these incredible women with an unforgettable evening of celebration and recognition.
About us
In recent years, it has almost become a ritual to ignore people’s achievements, successes, pains and even tears but the moment they kick the bucket, all manner of ceremonious, elating and soul-lifting stories about their good deeds will begin to litter the society, especially on social media.
Often than not, people come into the public space especially social media to harp on their predicament, successes, achievements, torments or how they are battling ailments, and most of the time, very few people respond or care to even listen to the ordeal of the fellow. But the moment the person dies, their photos will be used as profile pictures, display pictures, and well-detailed laudable articles about the deceased will begin to emanate from different angles.
It is against this backdrop, among other germane reasons that we initiated the Remarkable Mother’s Awards. While we have utmost respect for the dead, we strongly believe in eulogizing the living. We belong to the school of thought that believes in celebrating feats – whether great or small.
One thing many people don’t know is that celebrating the success of other people will help you expand your social network, learn new things, feel better, and identify alternate paths to achieving your own goals. Reality is that when you enjoy the success of others, you increase the likelihood of your own success.
Until the inception of the deadly COVID-19 in 2020 that plagued the world and has wrecked unquantifiable havoc across the globe, we have been celebrating women who have made indelible marks in their various endeavours. These are people who have and are still putting in all the hard work and resources to better society in their various capacities. And to be fair to all, our retinue of winners has always been drawn from across the globe.
We are excited to announce that we are making a sensational return with our awards this year to end our two-year drought. For us, it was never easy in the past two years to watch with keen interest how lots of women are making positively reverberating impacts in society without celebrating and putting them in the spotlight.
As it has always been our practice every year, we will be spotlighting and celebrating women who are not limited by fear, people who have strong values with a sense of purpose, that are connecting people to destinies, draw a roadmap for others to thrive, value human life, who don’t recognize failure, “Impossible” is not in their vocabulary, masters of time, and more importantly, women who have carved a niche for themselves in their various fields.

"It was a very elegant ceremony at the Pre-Mother's Day Awards. Over the years I have received numerous humanitarian awards from various organizations that have recognized my work in the community. I decided to celebrate other women by nominating five of my sisters to receive awards. This is what a true sister does—queens respect, elevate, celebrate, and love each other. Special thanks to Ngozi Ugoh, Founder and CEO of the Nigerian Canadian Newspaper Canada, who awarded me in 2019. She continues to recognize worth, value, and substance among women year after year."
