You may just get the emails from the table (e.g. by ExecuteRows()), loop through the records and put your working code (for single email) inside the loop.

Thank you. How do i add attachments to the mail?

// Email Sending event
function Email_Sending($email, $args)
{
    $rsnew = $args["rsnew"];
                $surname=CurrentUserinfo("surname");
                $firstname=CurrentUserinfo("firstname");
                $othername=CurrentUserinfo("othername");
                $fullname="$surname $firstname ";
                $senderemail=CurrentUserinfo("email");
                    $msgto=$rsnew["msgto"];
                    $msg=$rsnew["message"];
                    $subjecttemp=$rsnew["subject"];
                    $subject= strtoupper($subjecttemp);
                  $state= $rsnew["state"];
              $location=$rsnew["location"];
              $priority=$rsnew["priority"];
              $alert=$rsnew["alerttype"];
              $details=$rsnew["details"];
             $sEmail_List = "".$senderemail.""; 
              $email->Recipient = $sEmail_List; // Change recipient to a field value in the new record
              $email->Subject=$subject;
                              $email->Content = '
                           
                              <p> <center>'.$subject.'</center></p>
   <p> 
   <p>From: '.$senderemail.'</p>
   <p>To: '.$msgto.'</p>

I have been having issues using the loop.
this is my code

// Email Sending event
    public function emailSending($email, $args)
    {
     
      $allemail='';
      $sql = " SELECT *  FROM `staff` ";
      $stmt = ExecuteQuery($sql); // execute the query
            if ($stmt->rowCount() > 0) { // check condition: if record count is greater than 0
        while ($row = $stmt->fetch()) { // loop
            $allemail= $row["email"];
            $coma=',';
          $mail=  $allemail.=$coma;

          //  echo $mail;

        } }  // end loop

   // die;

        $rsnew = $args["rsnew"];
                    // $sAFileName = $this->attachment->attacment."/" . $Args["rsnew"]["attachment"] ;  
                               $surname=CurrentUserinfo("surname");
                               $firstname=CurrentUserinfo("firstname");
                               $othername=CurrentUserinfo("othername");
                               $fullname="$surname $firstname ";
                               $senderemail=CurrentUserinfo("email");
                                     $msg=$rsnew["message"];
                                   $subjecttemp=$rsnew["subject"];
                                   $subject= strtoupper($subjecttemp);
                            // $email->Sender = $senderemail;  
                            $sEmail_List = $mail; 
                             $email->Recipient = $sEmail_List; // Change recipient to a field value in the new record

$mail= $allemail.=$coma; is not getting the emails outside the loop .

You need to declare your $mail varable before the loop.
