Deductions & credits

If you "gave" money to your daughter then it was her money to use the way she wanted to use the money.   You did not donate to a charity---she did.   You cannot claim your daughter's donation as your own.

 

And.....unless a person has enough itemized deductions to exceed their standard deduction, donations have no effect on the tax due or tax refund.
