Hi,

When you say "the website" could you be more specific? Sugar has a rather sprawling web presence some of which is more currently maintained than other parts. 

For instance, on what I consider the "main" page, https://www.sugarlabs.org a search reveals no instances of the word "sponsor" at all.

I'd suggest, if you're truly open to offering any of a variety of contributions that you take a look at the Join Us section from the top of that page and see if something there might be helpful. 

Looking through each page available from that menu I also did not find mention of sponsors. I don't doubt that there is mention of them somewhere (eg, accounts on sugarlabs machines to which James refers) but it's not clear to me why you'd drill all the way down to asking after that.
