COMMUNITY CUPBOARD INC

The Denmark Community Cupboard is dedicated to ensuring everyone in our community has access to nutritious food. Through our delivery-based model, we bring fresh food bundles directly to families, seniors, and individuals—especially those working long hours or who are homebound. To further support our community, we purchase fresh groceries from local grocers and farms, keeping resources within our local economy while providing high-quality food to those in need. None of this would be possible without the generosity of neighbors who donate their time, money, and food to help us bridge the gap for families facing financial hardship. We also partner with the local school district to ensure children have access to nutritious food on weekends throughout the school year. Keeping kids well-fed helps them stay focused and engaged in the classroom, setting them up for success. Our annual Thanksgiving meal is a true community effort, with neighbors coming together to prepare turkey, potatoes, stuffing, rolls, and pie for anyone in need. Each year, we serve over 200 individuals—both on-site at Denmark High School and through deliveries. The Denmark Community Closet, a low-cost thrift shop, provides affordable clothing for families while also helping fund our food programs. By shopping or donating, you support local families and keep resources within our community. In 2019, we launched our Community Gardens, providing garden plots behind Our Savior's Lutheran Church for residents of all ages and abilities. These gardens not only supply fresh produce for families but also foster community connections. Gardeners share in the harvest, and we even occasionally offer canning classes after the season.
