The purpose of this study is to investigate the characteristics and satisfaction of volunteer activities, self - integration and factors of successful aging, and analyze the effects of volunteer service characteristics and satisfaction on successful aging of the elderly through mediation of self - integration. The ultimate goal is to propose a plan for improving the quality of life for the elderly. In order to achieve the purpose of this study, questionnaires were prepared through literature on volunteer activities. A total of 389 questionnaires were administered to the elderly in Gyeonggi Province and some parts of Seoul. The results of the analysis on the effects of successful aging are as follows. The self - integration of elderly people who are satisfied with volunteering activities has been found to be a factor affecting successful aging and it has a significant positive effect on the aging of the elderly. Based on the results of this study, we propose a policy proposal. First, it is necessary to develop opportunities for volunteer activities for the elderly. Second, it is necessary to strengthen the economic support system of the elderly volunteer activities and secure the financial resources of the central and local governments. Third, a systematic geriatric health management system is needed for continuous volunteer service. Fourth, it is necessary to develop concrete measurement tools that can measure and evaluate successful aging.
