To make your Sponsorship Letters effective you need to make it personal.
Call up your local service organizations like the VFW, American Legion, Elks, Moose etc. and ask if they can spare 5-10 minutes of meeting time so you can speak to the group.

Make sure you tell them a bit about yourself, why drum corps is important to you and what values you are learning by being a member.

I know of several corps members that were able to get monetary donations this way.

Good luck to you. Let me know if this helped.
