Quickly find a replacement sponsor. Go to church. Many people find sponsors through church. Also, talk to the school because you may be able to work under your f-1 status. 8 CFR sec. 214.2(f)(9)(i) allows "on-campus employment" up to 20 hours per week when school is in session and full time during breaks and vacation.
At your service,
