Description

My good friend, Ollie Cantos, who has been blind since birth, was born in Los Angeles to Filipino immigrants.


Ollie was the victim of daily bullying and taunts by other kids, his self-confidence and self-esteem were lacking. He did not think he would grow up to amount to much. He earned a law degree and became an attorney. Ollie is the first blind person to be elected to the City Council in West Covina.


There’s nothing more touching than watching Ollie interact with his three, adopted, blind, triplet boys – Leo, Nick, and Steven. The reason we wanted to visit with him is because of who he is as a person!
