Mr. Moe, one of their mentors, is on Chief Delphi a lot. Try e-mailing him and he'd probably be a great source of information for you.

Mr. MOE got your email and passed it on to those of us who worked on our 501c3 designation. I'll send you a separate email, but I had described the process last year in this post:

Basically, you have to become a non-profit organization first, then get the 501c3 status. All this varies by state, and we got all the forms needed off of the state and the IRS website. You need to set up by-laws, financial statements, and officers. Which really was easier than it sounded at first.
Good luck! Becoming 501c3 has helped us quite a bit with fund-raising and was worth the time and effort.
