Transfer of money to non-US citizen

Hi,

 

I'm a green card holder, and my mom is a non US citizen nor resident, and living outside of the US. I have a bank account in my native country, and wired amount equivalent to just over $20,000, from my bank account to hers, both are outside of the US. Do I report this wire transfer to the IRS as gift, even though my mom has no relations to the US?

 

Thank you.
