Charity Partners
Working alongside organizations making a real difference in organ transplant care, research, and patient support. Learn about the charities we support and how you can help.
Our Mission
Through The Beating Edge with Mani+, we raise awareness about organ transplantation and support charities dedicated to helping patients and advancing medical research.
As a heart transplant recipient and dialysis patient, I understand firsthand the challenges patients face. Through this platform, we aim to shine a light on organizations doing incredible work in the organ transplant community.
We partner with established charities that support kidney research, patient care, and families navigating the transplant journey. Every story we share, every conversation we have, helps build awareness and understanding.
Together, we can make a difference — one story, one conversation, one heartbeat at a time.
