He was sent by King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella of Spain because Portugal wouldn't send him.
Nobody actually sent him. He wanted to find a faster route to Asia so he asked kings and queens to fund him. King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella gave him the money and Christopher promised them riches to spread Christianity around.
Christopher Columbus convinced the King and Queen of Spain to finance his voyage to the New World.
