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.
