About Us
ROOTED IN CULTURE.
DRIVEN BY MISSION.
BUILT TO DELIVER.
Luminate Agency is a Detroit-based integrated marketing and communications firm serving mission-driven organizations, civic leaders, and community changemakers wherever the work takes us.
Our Story
Luminate Agency exists because extraordinary missions deserve extraordinary marketing.
For more than two decades, our founder Cedric Scott watched mission-driven organizations —
nonprofits, schools, campaigns, institutions — struggle to communicate the weight
of their work to the people who needed to hear it most.
The strategy was there. The heart was there. The infrastructure was not.
Luminate Agency is that infrastructure.
We are a full-service integrated marketing and communications firm that brings
executive-grade strategy to the organizations communities depend on. We do not
just execute campaigns. We build communications ecosystems that sustain missions
for the long term.
From the boardroom to the community meeting. From the ballot box to the classroom.
From the museum floor to the membership drive. We have been there. We have done
the work. And we know how to make it land.

WHO WE SERVE
Luminate Agency works with nonprofits and cultural institutions, political
campaigns and civic leaders, K-12 charter school networks, professional
consultants and growing small businesses, and faith-based organizations.
We are based in Detroit and serve clients locally, regionally, and nationally.
Our deepest relationships are in Detroit's civic, cultural, and faith communities —
and that network is one of the most valuable assets we bring to every engagement.
