Agata Mróz-Olszewska has been a European Champion twice, two times won with BKS Stal Bielsko-Biała the Championship of Poland, and once playing with Gruppo 2002 Murcia – the title of the Champion of Spain. She suffered Myelodysplastic syndrome of marrow. She died on the 4^th of June 2008, at the age of 26. She promoted honorary blond donation and bone marrow donation. The will to fight of Agata and her strong will to live moved the hearts of all people, not only those who were interested in volleyball. When she died her friends and husband Jacek Olszewski, decided to continue her initiative. This is how the idea to organize the Memorial emerged.

Every year during the Memorial the performance of many artists, athletes, painting and particular charity actions take place.
