Over a three-day period, more than 450,000 people submitted applications to receive Angeleno Cards, debit accounts ranging from $700 to $1,500, Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti said Friday, April 17.

Garcetti started the instantly popular campaign to raise as much as $10 million, which will go toward some — but not all — of those applicants.

Applications flooded the city’s website during the submission period –Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, crashing the site at various points. Many of the applications were immediately ineligible, however, because they came from people living outside the city.

It was unclear how many people will receive the cards, as of Friday. But crews have begun to randomly select applications and vet them for eligibility, according to the city’s website.

Applicants need to show proof that they were at low-income levels before the city’s stay-at-home orders went into effect, or if they have endured a huge hit to their income since the crisis began.

Garcetti noted that he plans to continue giving out the debit cards, so long as more money is donated to fund them. He encouraged viewers during his daily briefing Friday to continue pitching in.

Details on the next round of card applications is expected later.

“If we can double that we can help twice as many, if we can triple it, we can help three times as many people,” he said.

Garcetti added donations as small as $5 can help, as well as those from $1,000 to $20,000. Some donors have given millions of dollars, he said.

While answering a question on a separate topic, the mayor said that he donated the “equivalent” of his “salary for this month” to the campaign to fund the cards.

The mayor can now make a little more than $270,000 annually.
