The following facebook pages are not associations, but created by people who want to support people who just arrive in Denmark in different ways. Many of the group descriptions are in Danish, so you might have to use google translate to find information. However, you can always write your posts in English as almost everyone in Denmark speaks English.

Venligboerne : there are many different civil society groups called Venligboerne located in different towns or municipalities in Denmark. You have to apply to become a member of the facebook groups, which can then be a way to get in contact to helpful locals in your area.

Search for Venligboerne and then the name of the town or municipality you are in to get in touch. Below are some of the general facebook pages where you can ask for help.
