Several years ago, Will Bronson founded Bronson Enterprises for business activities that he intended to pursue after retiring from Delta Airlines in 1991.

In 2006, Mr. Bronson decided to return to school and earned a Doctor of Ministry degree from the Episcopal Divinity School in Cambridge, having earned a Masters in Theological Studies from Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary in the early seventies while flying for Delta. His previous studies included an MA from Suffolk University, Boston, in Education, and previous to that a BA from Whitworth College in Spokane, Washington in 1961.

Mr. Bronson’s thesis at EDS was titled: A Plan For Individual Engagement in the Millennium Development Goals. The first of these eight goals determined by the United Nations in 2000 is to  end extreme poverty in the developing world. In the course of his academic work, Mr. Bronson set up a non-profit corporation called Our Messengers that will carry forward his original vision of raising support for the Millennium Development Goals and an enlarged vision of actually developing alternative energy and nutritional solutions for remote areas of the developing world. Will Bronson has developed a PowerPoint presentation on world demographics and what can be done through the MDGs (Millennium Development Goals) in solving the crisis of extreme poverty that afflicts one sixth of the world population. You can view these slides, without commentary, elsewhere on this website.

Mr. Bronson has also produced a book called How To Get To Heaven, published by Cornelius Press, the publishing arm of Bronson Enterprises, which argues that according to the teachings of Jesus, people endowed with wealth need to take seriously the needs of the less fortunate. It suggests practical methods of aiding the other half of the world population that tries to survive on less than $2 per day.

Ten percent of the profits of the book and speaking engagements are committed to non-profit organizations working on advancing the MDGs.
