Introduction
GM Celo Community 
We are Celo Colombia 
, a community initiative focused on growing Celo’s presence and impact in Colombia 
through education, adoption, and local stablecoins 
Our main focus is $cCOP 
, the Colombian stablecoin issued by Mento Labs, which makes digital payments simple, stable, and accessible to everyone. By connecting $cCOP to real communities and real use cases, we aim to make Celo’s mission of prosperity for all a reality in Colombia 
We’ve organized workshops, merchant activations, cashback programs and much more to help Colombians use cCOP in their everyday lives, creating trust and real-world adoption 
Motivation
Our motivation comes from a deep belief that decentralized finance and regenerative economics can empower people and protect ecosystems 
We see stablecoins like $cCOP, powered by Mento, as tools for financial inclusion and transparency. With them, we can connect local economies, merchants, and communities through open, fair, and borderless money
