It’s a Passion Project

"We are repainting the Ruth Ellis Center's main space at the 70 Victor location. We have been talking with Ruth Ellis center on what their needs would be from us. It's been really cool to be involved helping volunteer for them, but also learning about all the resources that they have, so you can pass that along. It's been cool to learn the steps of painting and everything." 

Kiah Lowe. Sensational League, Detroit.
