The middle-aged and older adult population has always been the main source of volunteer manpower. This study mainly explores the main factors influencing the challenges faced by middle-aged and older adult volunteers, focusing on a county and city in northern Taiwan as the research area. The study considered 11 aspects of volunteer service difficulties, with predictive variables including gender, age, education level, job availability, volunteer role, service years, availability of service record books, and whether family members are engaged in volunteer service. Questionnaire surveys were conducted from March to May 2021, and 1,342 valid questionnaires were collected. The research findings indicate that the role played by volunteers is the main factor affecting their service difficulties, especially for those serving as volunteer supervisor in charge of volunteer business, who are more likely to encounter difficulties in promoting services. Therefore, their well-being is deserving of our attention and assistance. Based on these findings, the researchers propose conclusions and suggestions.
