Hi.

Thank You Very Much for taking the time to read this.

I am an international student and I am currently volunteering for a political party and planning to volunteer for a community centre, cancer society, a non profit organization.

is this considered illegal?

Please be kind enough to let me know.
Thank You Very Much.

No issues as long as these are all roles that people are not paid to do (i.e. others who are doing this work are also all volunteers).

These are not paid roles. Everyone is working under volunteering.
