The World’s Hottest Chip for a Good Cause
chip

As a part of United Way fundraising efforts in Southwest Kansas, Operations Manager Dennis Rohrbaugh made a challenge to his team. If they were able to substantially increase their fundraising and participation levels in Dodge City, Garden City and Liberal, then he would take the “One Chip Challenge,” which prides itself as the hottest potato chip on Earth.

The team raised $7,275, nearly twice as much money as last year, and had nearly twice as many people participate. Needless to say, Dennis had to eat the chip – thanks for taking one for the team!

We partner with our communities and customers, providing the kind of energy that fuels those areas and the lives of those we serve. Feel free to share the stories and photos. Make sure to tag us on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn and Twitter.
