Description

For the past 30 years, the San Diego Bunnyfest has been the largest annual fundraiser for the San Diego House Rabbit Society (SDHRS). This event is an open-air festival. Activities include a silent auction, art social, mini educational lectures, games, children’s crafts and 30+ vendors selling bunny-themed merchandise & services. In the past couple of events, attendance for our one-day Bunnyfest had ranged from 1000-2000 people visiting from nearby San Diego and Riverside counties to as far as Canada and across the U.S. 

Our Bunnyfest fundraising goal is $40,000 to help defray our medical bills. Each year, SDHRS rescues hundreds of rabbits, many in need of medical care. Last year through our fundraising and volunteer work, we provided medical care to over 100 rabbits in addition to spays & neuters. Since 2020, we’ve also protected nearly 1000 rabbits from RHDV through our lower cost vaccine clinics. All proceeds from Bunnyfest sponsors, silent auction donations and attendees go towards our medical expenses, which can exceed $95,000 per year.
