The TF Unions Charter

Article I — Non-Profit Mandate & Zero-Cost Access

TF Unions is an independent non-profit educational initiative. Our primary metric is student impact, never profit. Core student-facing access to TF News, TF Guide, and TF Connect is and will remain free of charge.

Article II — Project Selection Criteria

Before launching any seasonal tool or platform, the Founders and Core Team evaluate:

• Real Student Pain Point: Does it solve a verified, recurring barrier for Egyptian students?
• Zero-Overhead Sustainability: Can it run reliably on our consolidated open-source infrastructure without recurring bloat?
• Community Upvotes: Proposals submitted on /ideas with strong student demand are prioritized each season.

Article III — Verified Merit & Credential Integrity

Every volunteer certificate issued by TF Unions is backed by logged contribution hours in our internal HR pipeline and assigned a permanent cryptographic serial code (`TFU-YYYY-XXXXXX`) verifiable at verify.tfunions.com.

Article IV — 100% Open-Book Financial Ledger

Every pound or dollar contributed by community donors, sponsors, or the co-founders is recorded alongside every server and domain invoice on tfunions.com/transparency.
