Description Program Srvc AccomOver the span of over 42 years, Bunnies on the Bayou has developed into a fixture of charity and advocacy in the Greater Houston area for LGBT-focused programs and organizations. With the help of the community and its sponsors, it has been able to assist multiple groups every year: in the last 10 years, Bunnies has raised more than $1,200,000 to assist local non-profits support and strengthen important cultural and outreach programs, provide critical health care services and encourage life changing educational opportunities. The organization raises money through a series of community events throughout the year, and culminates every Easter Sunday at Bunnies on the Bayou, the largest outdoor cocktail party in Texas. The main fundraising events, Bunnies on the Bayou and Bunnies in Heat, were cancelled in 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic.DescriptionProgramSrvcAccomTxt
