Mother Urges Caution on Donations After Viral TikTok Shows Ex–Nickelodeon Actor Tylor Chase Homeless

A viral fan video spurred fundraising, with verification gaps plus family caution shaping next steps.

Overview

  • TikToker Citlali (@lethallalli) posted a clip from Riverside, California in which the man identifies himself as Tylor Chase, the former Martin Qwerly from Ned's Declassified.
  • A GoFundMe organized by the TikToker sought money for housing, food and basic needs, drawing donations as the story spread across Spanish‑language and U.S. outlets.
  • LA NACION and other outlets report the organizer shared a message attributed to Chase’s mother asking that cash not be given directly, citing his inability to manage money or medications.
  • Some coverage indicates the fundraiser paused or reconsidered direct payouts, with the organizer discussing routing funds through the mother to support care.
  • There is no confirmed statement from Chase or representatives, outlets note skepticism about authenticity, and a comment attributed to co‑star Daniel Curtis Lee acknowledging the situation remains unverified.
