He has been collecting money for the Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity since the age of 10. The stimulus for action was the tragic events of 1997, in which Poland was visited by "The Reason for the Millennium".

Since when have you been involved in the activities of the Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity? Have you previously been involved in other charity events and been involved in other voluntary activities?
I started my adventure with the Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity when I was 10 years old. The stimulus to help was "Powódź Tysiąclecia" in 1997 and a song recorded by the band Hey and friends under the title "My and Your Hope".
From the age of 10, I collected money for a branch in my hometown. At the age of 16, I was volunteering at an orphanage. At the same time, I started working with the Staff, which gathered all the local branches of the Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity. Mrs. Małgorzata - who is the Chief of Staff - decided to give me a great chance and nominated me to act as the person who sums up the collected funds during the Final. Let me just add that there were over 300 volunteers alone. For the next few years, I cooperated with this branch.
After my trip to Norway, I couldn't imagine January without the WOŚP Final. Izabela Polińska - who was the Chief of Staff at the time - was looking for people to cooperate with. Without a second thought, I contacted her and in 2012 I ran games in the children's area. Already in 2013, I was the deputy chief of staff. It was similar in 2014.
In 2015, we established cooperation with PSB PROFF and Dariusz Bobko became the Chief of Staff, and I was the Organizer of the WOŚP Finals in Oslo. This year, I managed to establish a charity organization, and thus I was nominated to the position of the Chief of Staff.
What do you do on a daily basis?
I work as a chef in a hotel and canteen on a daily basis.
What is the greatest thing about helping others?
The most wonderful thing is the feeling that we can save someone's life and make someone smile.
On the Internet you can find many attempts to discredit the idea of the Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity and Jurek Owsiak himself. Have you come across any negative opinions about your activities in this venture?
Unfortunately yes. But there will always be people who want to clip their wings. But don't give up, you should do your job.
How can you join the Oslo branch of the Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity? Do you have any special requirements?
Just contact us before Facebook or by e-mail.

Social campaigns and campaigns are extremely important because they allow those who require support to change the everyday environment. How can you convince your loved ones to get involved in helping others?
I don't think we can force others to… Everyone has to feel the need to help. There are a lot of people for whom the equipment with the heart of the Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity saved their lives and then they add their own donation.
Thank you for the conversation. Would you like to say something to Poles living in Norway?
Thank you very much for the interview as well.
Yes. Beloved, let's open our hearts. Let's not be afraid to help. Helping is fun (smile) We also invite you to visit us on January 13. It is a great opportunity to meet new people, and our staff will make sure that it is a magical time.
