This qualitative study aimed to investigate the relationship between prosocial behavior and well-being among middle-aged adults residing in Bhopal city. The research followed a narrative approach, focusing on individuals who met specific inclusion criteria related to their consistent engagement in helping others. The study sought to understand the motivations, experiences, and perceptions of these individuals who have actively contributed to society through their involvement with NGOs, social work, or instances where they risked their lives to assist others. A purposive sampling technique was employed to identify and recruit participants who met the inclusion criteria. In-depth interviews were conducted with a diverse group of middle-aged adults, ensuring representation from various socioeconomic backgrounds, genders, and occupational domains. The interviews were audio-recorded and transcribed verbatim, and thematic analysis was applied to identify recurring patterns and themes in the narratives provided by the participants. Preliminary findings revealed several common themes, including the intrinsic motivation to help others, personal growth and fulfillment derived from prosocial acts, and the impact of social support networks on well-being. The narratives provided insights into the participants' experiences of altruism, empathy, and the challenges they encountered while engaging in prosocial behavior. The findings will have practical implications for policymakers, NGOs, and community organizations in designing interventions and programs that promote prosocial behaviors and enhance the well-being of individuals in the community.
