Christian school in need of assistance after disaster?

I live in the northeast and my daughter attends a very small baptist school. The school has had many difficulties this year including a major staff overhauling. They have struggled in this tough economic time due to the economy and they are fighting just to keep their doors open. The school has blessed my daughter and I for the past 6 years, they have helped us so much personally. I divorced after she started attending there and financially it's been a struggle just to keep her there but I refuse to uproot her life any more.

Well we were struck by a large storm this past weekend and the school is still without power, they have had some pipe issues and water leaks. The sprinkler system for the school is down and it looks like it will not be re-opening any time soon. I cannot afford to do anything personally financially though I have offered to cook and help clean. Where can I go or who can I go to to help get financial support for the school and church. I understand the seperation of church and state and the public schools are all being taken care of, but how about these 140 students and their teachers. How and where can I find help.

    I think you pretty much have to rely on community volunteers. I work at a private school in the south and that's the way it was after Hurricane Ike for us. We were closed for 2 weeks fixing everything.
