The TVEC Charitable Foundation
“The Texas Start Quilters Guild is a wonderful example of the generosity and spirit that I love about our TVEC service area,” said Bobbi Byford, Director of Corporate Relations. “The Guild shows that every talent and skill can be used to assist in the community. Their commitment to giving back to the most vulnerable in our community really shows their character.”
Operation Round Up is a voluntary program, began in April of 2013, that allows TVEC members to round up their monthly electric bills to the next whole dollar amount. The portion that is rounded up goes to the TVEC Charitable Foundation and may be used to award grant requests to local charitable organizations.

Texas Star Quilters Guild is a nonprofit organization that has been serving East Texas for over 30 years. In 2023 alone, the Guild provided handmade quilts which were given to the Sheriff’s Department, Hope Pregnancy Center, the Children’s Advocacy Center and many other organizations. In addition, we make bibs and adaptive sweaters for nursing home residents, placemats for Meals on Wheels, and over 100 Quilts for Veterans through the Quilts of Valor Program.
