As a 15 year old, I needed money so I took it from my father's room. I did not know the money was for an orphan. I have repented and I really want to pay this money back. If I sponsor another orphan for the rest of my life will this help?

Having such feelings after this incident probably happening a long time ago is a positive sign of your righteousness. Seeing that you have repented, the only thing remaining is that you pay that specific amount back.
Should you wish to sponsor orphan/s, then that would also be an honourable thing for you, or any beleiver to do.
