Once a year the Rotary Clubs in the greater Des Moines area gather together as "one Rotary" for education, fellowship and community service. An educational forum is held on a different topic each year with a keynote speaker and panel. Past topics have included hunger, water quality, human rights, substance abuse, and mental health. Attendees also learn about non-profits that provide programs/services relative to the year's topic.

The Rotary Club of Des Moines AM initiated the first Forum in 2014 by leading an effort to inspire area Rotary clubs to come together one week each year to do more than any one club could do alone. The featured speaker was Naomi Tutu and hundreds of Rotarians gathered at an event that focused on human rights. Since that original event, the 12 Des Moines area clubs have continued to gather and provide an outstanding educational program and networking event that is available to all Rotarians and community members interested in making a difference in our communities.
