She also said that by launching this award, "we honour those who exemplify the values of kindness, service, and altruism within our community" while adding that it will also provide a platform to recognize and celebrate individuals who dedicate their lives to helping others, inspiring others to follow in their footsteps.

Mary continued that this award not only commemorates the contributions of Kangpokpi's own "Mother Teresa" but also encourages a culture of empathy and generosity that uplifts our society as a whole.
