Funding a ROTH IRA for my Parent: Tax Implications

I am interested in funding my mother's IRA. This account would be made under her SSN and I would be making contributions as an authorized user on her behalf. She is 50 and is still working.

 

My question: When it comes time for filing taxes, is there anything that needs to be done on my end or her end? I am concerned of any gift-tax related incidents and also how the account itself is filed for her taxes.
