Sylus Cruz

Hey, I’m Sylus Cruz. I’m a 16-year-old high school student at William Allen. I don’t really come from much but a single, strong, hardworking mother who has done it on her own my whole life to support me and my three sisters. She is a nurse/nurse graduate, and I’m really proud of her. I always wanted to be independent and do things right away, especially in healthcare. I wanna become an ER doctor in the future after I complete high school in 2 more years, but first, I’m starting off as an EMT (Emergency Medical Technician) in April of 2026. Then, I plan to work as an EMT or an ER Tech until I finish Med School. So at this moment, my main thing is being able to get back and forth without the bus or asking my mom, who’s very busy all the time, and the buses stop running after certain times. My dad isn’t really there, and it’s hard on my mom to do everything. So I’m asking for help to get a car because I wanna be independent and help out with bills and things, but I need a vehicle to get to work and my EMT course coming up. If you can help me, that’ll be a big blessing!!
