Inside Philanthropy is a news website about large philanthropic foundations and wealthy donors, created by David Callahan in 2013.{{cite journal |last1=Massing |first1=Michael |author1-link=Michael Massing |title=How to Cover the One Percent |journal=New York Review of Books |date=January 14, 2016 |volume=63 |issue=1 |url=https://www.nybooks.com/articles/2016/01/14/how-to-cover-the-one-percent/ |access-date=November 13, 2023 |quote=Callahan, the author of Fortunes of Change: The Rise of the Liberal Rich and the Remaking of America (2010), created Inside Philanthropy in 2013 to help fill this gap.}}

The site issues its own set of awards, such as the Philanthropist of the Year award and the Boldest Philanthropic Vision award.{{cite web |url=http://www.billionaire.com/philanthropy/conscious-entrepreneurs/1289/candid-philanthropy-awards-spotlight-generous-billionaires |title=The Most Generous Billionaires — Inside Philanthropy 2014 Awards - Billionaire |newspaper=Billionaire.com |access-date= August 30, 2015}}

The site has been noted for naming wealthy people who Inside Philanthropy considers as scoring relatively poorly on "relative generosity", or percentage of wealth that a person has given away, even if they still give out a comparatively large amount of money in absolute terms.{{cite web |url=http://blog.sfgate.com/techchron/2014/03/21/are-larry-page-jerry-yang-and-larry-ellison-pulling-their-philanthropic-weight/ |title=Are Larry Page, Jerry Yang, and Larry Ellison pulling their philanthropic weight? - The Technology Chronicles |newspaper=Blog.sfgate.com |access-date= August 30, 2015}}
