"And what if nobody had stepped up?"
One option would be to pitch it again in a different method and at a later time. Iterate on approach and message. If it truly is an important project and if prospective volunteers had the time to commit, surely someone would emerge.

Right, but the fact that you pitched it once, and failed, undermines your credibility the next time you pitch the same idea. In the worst-case, you can get known as "that guy who is always advocating for <x>" and your interlocutor dismisses you even before taking the time to listen to your new argument.
