Call your local ag extension office and ask if they can give you phone numbers for local small animal 4-H clubs. My 4-Hers have given homes to a variety of animals. My mom and I usually receive lots of calls from people with animals they can no longer keep.
 
If I was closer I would take him I want a new rabbit lost my DS"s lionhead/mini lop a few years ago and we are ready for new rabbit. He was male we never got him fixed but we also had no other rabbits.
 
Bring it to the NEBC show and try to sell it. Make sure to talk to the Show Secretary and get permission to sell it.
 
I sell my extra rabbits on hoobly.com. A bit higher quality than craigslist and they allow breeders. Try looking for any farm vets. We use the local farm vet for things we can't afford the more expensive in town vets. It was $60 to neuter a dutch buck through them whereas the vet I more commonly use would have charged me $50 just for the health check before the surgery.

Most female rabbits irregardless of breed will fight unless given a huge space. There are exceptions to every rule but it's not something I would repeatly attempt without being very cautious. The minimum I'd try to keep 2 unaltered rabbits together is my 3x6' cage for mini or dwarf size breeds and then I'd only do it if they were introduced when at least one was right at the 8week old mark before they fully mature. Trying to stick mature rabbits together without neutering one or providing a very large space (like an entire room) is very risky. Even in a whole room you are still likely to get scuffles off and on and the risk of a torn ear. Some does will not share no matter what. I had one that would not get along with other does in a 24x12' horse stall. I finally caged her individually for her own safety because she was a 4lb mini rex and kept taking on my 10-15lb champagne d'argent does. They were unimpressed.
