Wow, how nice of your daughter! I am sure the food banks are appreciative of your offer, but they may not be set up to accept the cards, even if they would like to. And they have to follow guidelines. I think the idea of donating food bought with the cards is a great one. And/or, you may find charities in your area that specify they can accept gift cards. I know of a local organization in my town that accepts gift cards. (It is not a food pantry, however; they have a different mission.)
