After clicking on the Give button, the site displays only grey boxes where the sponser links are, but not their icons and the links are disabled. Reproducible: Always
You have enabled ad blocking; the sponsor links you are talking about are below the description "The ads below make The Hunger Site possible", so blocking them is very clearly the expected behavior of enabling ad blocking. Some of the main page stuff isn't exactly ads, but all the images involved are served from URLs with /ad/ in them, so I suspect that's not realistically fixable.

Haven't we had people mention our ad-blocker in the context of The Hunger Site before, and WONTFIXed those because they're coming from what is clearly an ad directory? I thought we had, but a quick search for "hungersite" in bug comments didn't turn up anything notable. Regardless, I agree with Stuart -- those are clearly ads, and ad-blocking should be blocking them. If someone wants to put legitimate content in a directory called "ads", there's not a lot we can do to save them from their own stupidity. I'm going to go ahead and WONTFIX this (more of a CANTFIX, but yeah).
