“I haven’t forgotten that I come from a poor family. This keeps me grounded and grateful for what I have today,” Ocampo was quoted as saying. Every year, he celebrates his birthday with the less fortunate children.
“[This my way of] sharing my blessings to all these kids. Kasi marami din sigurong hindi nakakaalam, minsan naging bata din ako na nangarap. Galing din ako sa hirap,” Ocampo said in an interview during his 33rd birthday celebration last July.
