Once you have decided to provide a loving home to a pet rabbit (or any animal in need for that matter), you have not only made a great choice, but you will also gain a great satisfaction that comes with adopting a pet. Without sounding too "political", there are so many reasons to adopt, rather than buy a pet, and if most people adopted, there would be less reason to breed for financial gain.
With that said, congratulations on deciding to adopt a pet bunny! Now what? We found a great resource that is actually sponsored by Purina, Bayer and the Petco Foundation, that can actually help you find a rabbit in your area to adopt. Adopt A Pet says the folowing about rabbit adoption:
"First most, understand that no matter what, even if you buy a Rabbit for sale, or adopt, as a new pet owner it is your responsibility to care for the Rabbit it’s entire lifespan. Part of that responsibility is taking time to understand the basic needs of a Rabbit. At the top of that list should be getting know the diet of a Rabbit. Find out how often and what a Rabbit needs to eat. Next, what shelter do you need to provide? Get to know what habitat a Rabbit is accustom to, what temperature will the Rabbit need to maintain, and what range of temperatures are acceptable for a Rabbit to survive.

It’s usually a good idea to get to know a little more about
Rabbit habits, temperament and relationship with humans before adopting a
Rabbit. For example, can you handle a Rabbit. What is an indicator if a Rabbit
is being aggressive and senses fear? Some pets will maintain much more
happiness as long as they live socially, does a Rabbit need a companion pet in
order to live happily? What exercise does a Rabbit need regularly?
Rabbit adoption can be an enriching experience, and is a big
decision. Whatever pet you adopt will demand certain lifestyle changes, and a
financial commitment. Estimating the monthly costs of owning a pet is just as
important as making sure you have the time and motivation to feed the Rabbit
when necessary, and provide a safe environment to live."
