Answer 1

Since you have no experience, no vision and no idea what you want to do, you are not going to receive funding/sponsors, and you really aren't in a place to start your own charity. You need to volunteer with organizations to understand how they work, how they succeed, how they attract resources, etc.

In the USA, find volunteering opportunities here:

VolunteerMatch, http://www.volunteermatch.org

Idealist, http://www.idealist.org

Change.org, http://www.change.org

CraigsList, http://www.craigslist.com

Network for Good, http://www.networkforgood.org

http://www.1-800-volunteer.org/

ServeNet, http://servenet.org/

Also, contact your local volunteer center; you can find this via the Points of Light Foundation web site,

http://www.pointsoflight.org/centers/

There's also this government sponsored site, http://volunteer.gov/gov/ which provides volunteer positions through USA federal land agencies like Fish & Wildlife, Forest Service, National Parks, etc.
