Valborg Hammerich née Rump (1897–1988) was a Danish philanthropist who in the 1930s established homes for needy women and children. During the German occupation (1940–1945), as a member of the Danske Kvinders Samfundstjeneste she helped to provide food and clothing for those suffering from lack of supplies.
