Danish humanitarian aid to Norway during World War II, in Norway called Norwegian: Danskehjelpen and in Denmark called Danish: Norgeshjælpen, resulted in 32,000 tons of food supplies from occupied Denmark to occupied Norway. The aid was initiated in 1941, after the formation of Den norske damekomité in Copenhagen. Among the central organizers in Denmark were Carl and Borghild Hammerich.[1][2][3][4]
