If done right, the box would have contents based on need. Sort of like WIC, which I think is a solid program that works well for mothers and children. It's also got very strict guidelines.

If they're not trying to cheap up and fill it with substandard food, then this could be a good thing for improving children's nutrition and fixing the problems in SNAP.

I don't have that kind of faith in a group that considers food stamps the needed cut while increasing military spending...again.

If they want to funnell funds to the local organizations that can make it specific for their population, maybe.

Given Trump's lack of planning for anything I can't see it being a good thing.
