It is "to whom". You use whom as an object and whoas a subject, just as you use him as an object and heas a subject, or me as an object and I as a subject. This gives you an easy way to check whether you should use who or whom: try substituting he or him, or I or me.

For example, would you say "give it to he" or "give it to him"? Since "give it to him" is correct, you know that you need to use an object after "to", so that tells you to use "whom". You could also have used "give it to me" or "give it to I" to tell you the same thing: "give it to me" is correct, showing that you need an object after "to".
