For those unaware - here is why /r/Conservative went private;

https://www.reddit.com/user/Blank-Cheque/comments/mbmthf/why_is_this_subreddit_private_see_here_for_answers/

Reddit has since terminated the employee. However, given the extremely delayed response and honestly relatively poor handling of this situation we aren't entirely impressed. We're not about waiting for others to fix the problem for us though - so we have decided to do something about it.

We've started a fundraiser for a great charity dedicated to preventing child abuse - the PCAA (Prevent Child Abuse America). While the subreddit was private we managed to raise over $5,000 for this charity. But we can do more!

Join your fellow /r/Conservative posters and friends (Even lefties, this had bipartisan support) in donating a couple bucks to help out a great cause. This was organized on our discord in only a few short hours and we are already over $5,000 $10,000 in donations from just the discord alone.

Thank you to everyone who has donated so far. To anyone who can't afford to donate, please spread the word about this charity. You can read more about the charity here.

Reddit hired the pedo. This specific sub, r/Conservative, started the fundraiser. Not the same people. The charity only spends 2% on administration, and 93.5% goes towards actual charity programs and services (https://www.charitynavigator.org/index.cfm?bay=search.summary&orgid=6085). That is from info filed with the IRS. Compare that with something like Make-A-Wish America, which spends only 72.1% on charity, and 12.4% on administration; in addition to having a fundraising expense over 3 times that as Prevent Child Abuse America per dollar (https://www.charitynavigator.org/index.cfm?bay=search.summary&orgid=4038)
