    First Annual Bunny Run, Benefiting the Care Center Foundation

    Hop into spring at the First Annual Bunny Run in West Chester, PA! Join us on March 28th for a festive 2K Walk and 5K Run supporting the incredible work of the Care Center Foundation, an organization dedicated to uplifting under‑resourced families through education, family programs, holiday meals, social services, and safe‑housing support for women and children.

    Slip on your bunny tails, lace up your sneakers, and bring your loved ones for a morning filled with movement, laughter, and Easter‑themed fun. Whether you’re a seasoned runner or simply out for a cheerful stroll, everyone is welcome on the course.

    And yes, the Easter Bunny will be there to greet participants, pose for photos, and cheer you on as you hop across the finish line.

    Expect a lively atmosphere, pastel colors, festive outfits, and plenty of opportunities to get creative with your race‑day look. With our cheerful bunny mascot in sneakers leading the way, this event is all about joy, community, and giving back. This is more than a run, it’s a celebration of wellness, connection, and hope for families who need it most.

    Let’s make our first Bunny Run unforgettable. See you at the starting line!
