Aniket Arun Pendhari
From Farming Fields to the IT World
Aniket Arun Pendhari grew up in Koshimbe, a small village in Nashik district where most families depended on farming for survival. His family of five struggled to meet daily needs on an annual income of less than ₹1 lakh.
In a village where education was rarely prioritized, children were expected to work and support their families instead of continuing their studies. But Aniket had a different dream — he wanted to study Computer Engineering and build a career in the IT sector.
Despite financial hardships and doubts from people around him, Aniket stayed determined to pursue education and transform his future.
The YDF team guided him and encouraged his parents to support his education. Receiving the scholarship three times during his college journey removed a huge financial burden and gave him the mentorship he needed.
With YDF’s support, Aniket completed his Bachelor of Engineering in Computer Engineering from SNJB’s Late Sau K B Jain College of Engineering in 2025.
Today he works as a Full Stack Developer at Webteam Pvt. Ltd., transforming not only his life but also the future of his family.
