On the early morning of June 18th, the LENZ Therapeutics team was excited to participate in the AOA 5k to support Optometry Cares, the AOA foundation focused on expanding access to vision care. The team gathered at sunrise in the beautiful city of Chicago with our team uniforms ready!

The LENZ team was ranked as one of the highest fundraising teams of the event and had a total of 3 in-person runners participate, as well as 1 virtual. Thank you to the AOA foundation for creating a wonderful event that had over 300 participants, and for helping raise awareness around Optometry Cares.
