My peers were skeptical

Initially, the reactions to my requests for them to join this initiative were skeptical. There was fear, a lack of understanding, and sometimes even comments suggesting that there are more attractive topics than helping older people.

However, I managed to convince a group of peers, and after working together for some time, each of them has gained a significantly greater amount of knowledge, understanding, and, most importantly, immense joy from participating in this initiative.

Last but not least, this project has significantly changed me personally.
