Owsiak is the chief organizer and the initiator for the organization’s Grand Finale, an annual global festival featuring music and other elements designed to raise funds for medical treatment of children and older people suffering from various health conditions. Owsiak is the founder of the Pol’and’Rock Festival, formerly known as Przystanek Woodstock (“Woodstock Festival”) which is a major rock music festival which occurs within Kostrzyn nad Odra, to be grateful to all the volunteers and patrons who participate in the Grand Finale every year.

His first fund-raising participation was organised spontaneously after an appeal from the cardio-surgeons from “Centrum Zdrowia Dziecka” (“Children’s Memorial Health Institute”), for financial support for the purchase of medical equipment. In 1992, Owsiak invited doctors onto his programme “Brum” broadcast on Polskie Radio Program III, and repeatedly reminded his listeners on every edition about paying money into a given account. This action was also continued during the Jarocin Festival the same year.

1993. Since then, the Great Finale has taken place every year and Owsiak is the main organizer and compere of the TV programme under the same title, broadcast on TVP2.
