The '''Mariang Maya Awards''' are bestowed on outstanding Sigma Deltans in recognition of their contributions to the growth and development of their professions, communities, people, country, Sorority, its Alumnae Association, and Filipino womanhood.
The '''UP Sigma Delta Phi Sorority''' is an organization of women based in the University of the Philippines Diliman. Since 1933, UP Sigma Delta Phi has been developing women to be excellent and self-propelled leaders who use their capabilities to serve the community around them.  


Introduced by the Sigma Delta Phi Alumnae Association National Board in 1983, the first award honored ten outstanding Sigma Deltans in different fields of endeavor. The Association coordinates the Award through its National Mariang Maya Awards Committee that selects a board of judges from among Mariang Maya Awardees.
In their continuous pursuit for excellence, Sigma Deltans empower one another to do more and unite themselves to be able to help the community. Together, they work to bring positive impact to society.  


The Award is named after Mariang Maya, the Filipino zarzuela written by renowned and multi-awarded literary and cultural writer Virginia R. Moreno for the Sorority’s 1953 musical production. Since August 1983, the Mariang Maya Awards are given every five years to honor outstanding sister-achievers of Sigma Delta Phi. To date, sixty Sigma Deltans are proud owners of the Mariang Maya statuette that was designed and sculpted by National Artist Napoleon Abueva.
Empowering one another, Sigma Deltans nurture a lifetime bond of sisterhood, a deep rooted tradition formed in the Sorority’s 86 years of excellence. </p>
