“आनंद निकेतनचे एकूणच कार्य पाहताना मला मनस्वी आनंद झाला. खरं तर विशेष मुलांसाठी एखादी नवीन शाळा सुरु करणे, विविध उपक्रमांतून त्यांच्या, तसेच त्यांच्या आईवडिलांच्या जीवनाला नवी ऊर्जा देणे हे एक मोठे आव्हान आहे. ‘आस्था’च्या कार्यकर्त्यांनी हे आव्हान समर्थपणे पेलले आहे, त्याबद्दल मी सर्वांचे हार्दिक अभिनंदन करतो.”
