What happens if one wishes to go through the RCIA process but lacks a sponsor?

I've seen many explanations of the RCIA process, but all of them I've found make reference to a sponsor of sorts. [A local parish's website explains:](http://www.stmarycathedral.com/rcia.html) > A sponsor accompanies any candidate seeking admission as a catechumen. > Sponsors are persons who have known and assisted the candidates and > stand as witnesses to the candidates' moral character, faith, and > intention (see Godparents Role In Baptism.) [Another question](https://christianity.stackexchange.com/questions/35790/requirement-for-godparents-in-the-roman-catholic-church) indicates that the sponsors/godparents must meet certain requirements. Here's the problem: Were I to go through this, I would be the only Catholic in my family that I know of. Supposedly I have an aunt in the faith, but she lives both a great distance away, and we're really not all that familiar. (In other words, it sounds like she wouldn't meet the requirements.) What would I do in this case? Can one be initiated without a godparent or sponsor?
