Francisco Vázquez de Coronado's expedition in search of the Seven Cities of Cibola was sponsored by the Spanish viceroy of New Spain, Antonio de Mendoza. Mendoza provided the financial support and resources for the exploration of the American Southwest.

the king did
King Francis 1
QUEEN ISABELLA There seems to be a very serious misapprehension by a lot of users on this site that Ferdinand and Isabella sponsored every expedition that ever followed the one of Columbus. In fact, I am still waiting for the one that asks "Why did Ferdinand and Isabella sponsor the moon landings". To put the facts right, Isabella died six years before de Coronado was born. Ferdinand died when de Coronado was six years old. De Coronado was not sent by anyone, he took it upon himself as Governor of the Kingdom of Nueva Galicia, and with the permission of the Viceroy of Mexico, Antonio de Mendoza. The expedition was financed by de Coronado and de Mendoza.

There is no such word, or a need for one. The word "sponsor" is already a noun applied to a person, group, or company.
The local grocery store is a sponsor of our school.
