Snowflake, a unique stuffed pony based on an actual horse in Wells Fargo’s history, was recently donated to Steps to HOPE by the bank’s Landrum branch. Snowflake will reside in the shelter’s playroom, where she can be enjoyed by children of all ages. The real-life Snowflake led a team of horses that helped deliver money, merchandise, packages and important business papers from Jersey City to customers in Manhattan via Hudson River ferry in the 1880s.
