We want to invite different plan sponsors as guests. What is the process?
Toigo welcomes Plan Sponsors as guests to the event. You may invite them as a guest to your table using the same steps outlined for other Sponsor Guests. However, we ask that you have your Plan Sponsor Guests register as quickly as possible to allow the Foundation to manage any overlapping invitations. If your Plan Sponsor must be a guest of the Foundation or if they are required to pay the fair market value for the event, please direct them to events@toigofoundation.org.
