You should use "to whomever" when it's the object of the sentence, and "to whoever" when it's the subject. Just think of whomever as him/her and whoever as he/she. For example: "I will give this apple to whomever (him/her) wants it." "To whoever (he/she) left their wallet, please come claim it." Isn't language fascinating? 😊
