- My guess is that probably half of you guys
don't even know about this part of ClickFunnels.
A big part of the mission to help you guys
to get your message out, to sell your products,
to make more money, but on the flip side of that,
I'm hoping that throughout this whole weekend you're seeing
like the power of what you can do with money, with funnels.
And so when we first launched three years ago,
I'm curious how many of you guys even knew this,
so, did you know that every single time
any of you guys builds a funnel,
we donate $1 towards
an organization called World Teacher Aid.
How many of you guys were aware of that?
How many had no idea that was even happening?
Most of the room.
(laughs) Crazy.
- Okay, and we're back.
Alright, here we're in Paris.
- In Minneapolis on our way to?
- Nairobi, Kenya.
- So you guys have actually been donating
a whole bunch of money, and so we wanna kinda show you guys
what's happened over the last 12 months.
So, to do that, we'll be bringing up
two of my favorite human beings on planet Earth,
Stu and Amy McLaren.
Will you guys come on up?
- Whether you realize it or not,
ClickFunnels have been contributing and what we love to do
is we love to show where that is actually going.
And in the last 12 months, a lot has happened.
We wanna kinda bring you behind the scenes
and show you what the ClickFunnels community has done.
(light music)
- I have been in the car forever,
Colette is asleep back there, Evan's passed out in the back.
We're talking marketing so we're wide awake.
Much needed bathroom break.
Dave do you know where the bathroom is?
- I do so bad.
- But here's what happened.
It was actually in a mastermind with Russell,
basically when Russell wants to do a family vacation
he'll invite a bunch of people to come
and basically pay for the vacation
and that was one of those, it was at Pirates Cove.
And he encouraged me to share it with everybody
and several of the people there said
I'm in for a class room and before we knew it
we had enough to build the whole school.
- Right here, there's Shalom,
which is the first school that we came to do in 2002.
I mean 2012 not 2002, I'm so bad at years.
(both laughing)
Hey, Colette, do you wanna watch what's about to happen?
- Oh my gosh, we're here.
Shalom.
- [Russell] The kids are all lined up.
- [Colette] They're gonna welcome us
with their happy greeting.
- [Russell] Wow.
- [Children] Karibu, Karibu!
(children cheering)
- On that side's the first school
and there's the high school back there.
- [Colette] Oh My Gosh!
- [Evan] Look at all those classrooms.
(children cheering)
- How are you?
All right, so then 2016, at Funnel Hacking Live
everyone in the audience started to help build a school,
and so we actually built this entire
these two classrooms right here
as a Funnel Hacking Community so check this out.
This one right here, we call it
the Future FunnelHackers, right there,
and this is the classroom where they're learning
English, Math, and then down here is
your Funnel University.
(singing in foreign language)
- These bring you our first school.
Thank you very much, for us to sell you that idea
and you bought it, and it has really materialized.
May God bless you, may God bless you, may God bless you.
Many of these children that you see,
many of the families are broken families.
Others are the head of the families.
Especially right from the background of the violence.
(gun bangs)
(slow dramatic music)
- [Jane] I was watching when we had
the post election violence.
Although we were not going out
you would hear a lot of shots.
And then watching the news to a point where I got depressed.
We were not turning on the television
because of the depressing news.
It was fire, people are burning, it was really bad.
- [Leonard] It all began some few days before the elections,
to when the general elections was delayed.
Where one candidate thought the elections had been rigged.
- [Jane] So they really mess with the people
who are supporting them, and they tell them
this is what you do.
They even incite them, fight!
The people who had it worst.
- [Leonard] Hundreds of thousands are displaced.
Most of the displaced persons were not exactly poor people,
so some of them lost everything.
- IDPS are people who have been
relocated from their homes
where they are relocated in a big chunk of land
it's in the middle of nowhere,
where there are no amenities, no nothing, and basically,
they are like refugees but within their own country.
No school, no hospital, no nothing.
So, for us we specifically focus on education.
That's our call, mission.
Which is what we have found that is the most important
because that's bringing the community together.
(children cheers)
(singing in foreign language)
- [Jane] So there is great hope in what you are doing.
It shall not be forgotten even by God.
God will bless you.
Between now and next year many things will have happened.
- It's been a long journey.
So many people are really devoted themselves,
and we really thank you guys for the good work you have done
in our schools and continue in pocketing them
and just making them what they are.
- The gift that we're giving them
is so much bigger than he
I mean, it's a couple thousand bucks for us,
it's not that big of a deal, but for them
it's like a future and hope
and they just want us to be proud of them.
You realize how much it means to them.
It's cool, it's just fun to go back to Shalom
today after seeing Jane this weekend
and just remembering when we we met her.
The word in my mind is like hopeful,
like, it's so cool to see the transformation
each time we come.
From each of the communities and I'm just pumped and excited
for these guys, and all you guys.
(crickets chirping)
(slow hopeful music)
- All right so I have, we survived night one in the tent.
It was a little cold last night, but now the sun's up.
It's beautiful, we just had breakfast,
and check this out, I'll show you guys what's happening.
All right, so this is the tents that everyone's packed.
We got row of tent all the way down here,
and all the way down through here.
And this is the actual school right there, which is awesome.
And there's about 300 kids on the other side waiting
for us to look at the school,
and we're going to head over there in a few minutes.
- All right, now it's time to go get to work.
So we got painting projects, we got hole digging projects,
all sorts of fun stuff.
- [Russell] So we're planting all the plants
to make this place more beautiful.
- Yeah, it's going to be so gorgeous in a year.
Yes, we are going to first sand the walls down,
wanna clean these chips,
then we're going to clear the debris with our brush.
- Painting heavy, painting heavy!
They're having us do the primer because
they don't trust us with the real coat.
(laughing) And, they shouldn't.
- [Russell] Rightfully so.
(children chattering)
- [All] Go, go, go.
(laughing)
- All the kids look good with their nails painted.
Men, women, kids, boys, girls, everyone,
so that's kinda fun.
Let's see, let's see, beautiful!
(children laughing)
I'll help me.
We just found the bridge that we've been looking for.
- Yeah!
(slow happy music)
(child laughs)
- [Stu] Hi!
(chomping)
- Jurassic Park.
Now the show must go on for the tour.
Guys, this is one of their homes, the kitchen here.
- Oh, wow!
This is their next door neighbor, 92 years old.
All right so we're about to bring
these pencil bags to our classroom.
So our classroom, every year you name a classroom,
but this year we want to do it for our kids' names.
- (laughs) So we mashed their names together.
- The problem is, it's like a license plate
you only get X amount of characters
and we've got five kids, we had to smoosh all their names
into one supername.
There's Ellinor and Dalaidwen.
(laughs)
Each of these classrooms, most of the ones here
are built by the Funnel Hacking community.
So this is the LadyBoss Learning Center.
This is Brandon and Kaelin from LadyBoss.
This Delivering WOW classroom, this is from Anissa,
this is one of our Funnel Hackers.
Anissa is this your classroom?
- This is my classroom!
- So exciting, Kim and Toby, the Two Comma Club winners,
they donated and came, not only donate money
they donated their time to actually come here.
Morning of everybody's second day of the camp
they're leaving the tents,
and then they're doing a big huge celebration
later on today with about 1,000 people.
All the villagers are coming here to dedicate the school.
- We're bound to get the opening ceremonies started.
- All the cars coming in, there's a whole convoy of cars.
The Governor's here, here's the convoys for the celebration.
(singing in foreign language)
- So just a big thank you to both of you guys
for always being a huge support, and just a huge thank you
to the ClickFunnels community,
I mean you guys have been unbelievable
and the more success you have,
the more impact that we're able to have as well,
so keep cranking out those funnels, baby!
(laughs)
- We told our community all about all of you.
We told them how special you are.
And our community wanted to help.
Now there are 10s of thousands of entrepreneurs
who every day are working to raise money for you.
I said earlier, so, for every time
you guys have a funnel that goes live
we donate a dollar toward World Teacher Aid
and we save that whole thing up
and we don't tell Stu even what it is until right now.
So since this time last year you guys have built
133,737 funnels that have gone live.
(applauding)
- Holy Cow!
(dramatic music)
- [All] We love you.
- That's unbelievable.
I want to hug all of you! (laughs)
That's unbelievable, I mean that's a credit to you guys
for all of the funnels you guys are cranking out.
We're just very, very grateful to be part of this community
we look forward to.
That will build more than a whole school.
Very, very grateful
(cheering)
- One funnel away!
- [Children] One funnel away!
(speaking foreign language)
- [Man] Confusionsoft.
- [All] Confusionsoft
- [Man] We are.
- [Children] We are.
- ClickFunnels!
- [Children] ClickFunnels!
- Yay!
- [Everyone] Yay!
- [Children] Bye!
Bye.
Bye, bye.
- You know it's been fun watching it the last 10 years
because so many things that one person can do
when they have a dream and a vision
and the ability to actually go after it.
I think we take it for granted.
We all have basic needs, but they don't have that
and if we can give them those things
then they have the ability
to impact and change someone's life.
One other cool story we had, this guy name Leonard
he'd gone to school but had to drop out
because he couldn't afford it.
So we helped finish his college education
we paid him, hardly anything, like
a couple hundred bucks to help finish his college education.
Hi, this is Leonard!
- Yeah.
- How's it going?
- [Russell] And when we came here this trip,
he was so excited he drove three and a half hours
on a little motorcycle to come and we saw him.
He wanted to show us he brought his diploma
so he could show us.
- Really? - Yeah. (laughs)
- [Leonard] Do you know I have five children?
- I didn't know you had five, I thought you had three.
You do, we have five, too!
- [Russell] Oh, so proud of you.
- [Colette] Oh, gosh!
- [Leonard] Yeah.
- [Colette] Leonard!
(laughs)
- [Russell] He said, "You don't understand what this did."
He said, "When I got this diploma,
"I went back to the village and I kept my graduation gown on
"and my whole village had a celebration.
"I told all the kids that because I got a diploma,
"all of you guys can get a diploma."
From one person succeeding
now his whole village believes they can succeed.
You look at the ripple effect from that.
When you start figuring out how to give and how to serve
your mind opens up the possibilities.
I believe God expands your capacity
because He knows that He can trust you with this,
not just like, I'm making more money
so I can get my new Lambo and my new Ferrari
and all these things.
He's like, no, I'm going to bless this person
because he's using this increase to help somebody else.
We have this thought, well, when I'm successful.
then I'll donate money.
And it's like, no, figure it out now
and then your mind will be expanded to figure out
how to get your own needs and other people's needs met.
And when you start looking at things that way,
your mind is just opened.
For me I believe it's like revelation comes to you
because it's like I'm trying to figure out
other ways to serve.
