Kind of missed the benefit of going "for profit," since 501c3's can donate to other causes as long as it's for the public benefit: http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-tege/eotopich01.pdf

While I love Paul Newman's food, acting career, and generosity, going "for profit" I think causes more potential problems than it solves.
