The second goal was to understand what the volunteer workers have gotten and how they have felt in the process of their participation. The final aim was to determine the related factors influencing the planning of their volunteer lives. The research was designed by interviewing four middle-aged volunteer workers committing themselves in different types of organizations to make a qualitative analysis. Based on the data obtained from the interviews, results indicated that: (1) The motivation for the middle-aged volunteers to participate in their volunteer works was multifaceted; however, most of it was “self-oriented.” (2) The participating in the volunteer works of the middle-aged volunteerscould generate lots of positive feedback as they worked; however, the volunteer system in the organizations could cause them some negative feelings. (3) The factors affecting the middle-aged volunteer workers to plan their volunteer lives were compound. According to the findings above, we will offer several suggestions for the civilians and related organizations to take a reference.
