El Paso resident & star on hit TV show “Opportunity Knocks” hosts couponing class presented by Raiz Federal Credit Union and La Nube 

El Paso, TX (January 27, 2026) |

Raiz Federal Credit Union invites the community to a hands-on couponing class on Friday, January 30, 2026, at La Nube STEAM Discovery Center, as part of its participation in the national series, Opportunity Knock$. This initiative demonstrates Raiz’s ongoing commitment to expanding access, removing barriers, and creating opportunities rooted in education and inclusion.

Led by a local Raiz member known for sharing practical savings strategies, the class offers real-life tips that families can use to make their money go further. What started as a personal effort to stretch her own budget has evolved into a community resource, empowering others to save effectively. With Raiz’s support, Jovanna will share her knowledge in an in-person session designed to be approachable, useful, and immediately applicable.

During the class, attendees will learn practical couponing strategies, including how to understand store policies, stack coupons effectively, and maximize savings on groceries and everyday essentials. While caregivers participate in the class, children will have the chance to explore some of La Nube’s hands-on exhibits in a space designed for curiosity, creativity, and discovery.

“At Raiz, we see firsthand how meaningful change begins with access and encouragement,” said Max Villaronga, President and CEO of Raiz Federal Credit Union. “By supporting opportunities like this, we’re helping families build confidence through practical tools and creating spaces where learning, connection, and possibility can grow.”

This class is part of Raiz’s ongoing involvement in Opportunity Knock$, a national reality series celebrating resilience, financial education, and the power of community partnerships. Raiz is honored to be the only credit union featured in all three seasons of the show.
