Princess Burland launches Diya Impact Foundation to promote early health screening
Ghanaian entrepreneur and beauty influencer, Princess Burland has launched the Diya Impact Foundation, to create awareness on the importance of early health screening.
The foundation will hold “Know Your Numbers” initiative on May 16 at Nyamekye Traffic light Junction to provide free BMI checks, hepatitis B testing, blood screenings, and other essential health assessments to the public.
In addition, individuals without health insurance will receive free National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) registration, addressing one of the most overlooked barriers to consistent healthcare access.
“We’ve normalized guessing when it comes to our health. People don’t know their numbers their blood levels, their risks, their status until something goes wrong. ‘Know Your Numbers’ is about changing that culture completely.
“In many communities, routine health checks are often postponed due to cost, fear, or lack of awareness. The Diya Impact Foundation seeks to confront this directly not only by removing financial barriers, but by reframing health awareness as an essential part of everyday life rather than an emergency response,” she told Graphic Showbiz.
The “Know Your Numbers” health initiative falls in line with the broader vision of President Mahama’s Free Primary Health Care (FPHC) launched in April, marking a significant milestone in Ghana’s journey towards achieving Universal Health Coverage (UHC).
Princess Burland believes that while Ghanaian entrepreneurs are increasingly moving towards projects that make impact, Diya Impact Foundation reflects a more intentional evolution where influence is not just measured by visibility buy drive change.
“Know Your Numbers,” is not just hosting a health screening, it is starting a conversation that challenges people to pay attention, take action early, and prioritize their wellbeing without delay.
“Health and financial stability go hand in hand. You can’t truly build or grow when your health is uncertain. And you can’t sustain good health without stability. This foundation is about addressing both.”
“Because in the end, the message is simple, but urgent: Know your numbers before they define your future and that is the change Diya Impact Foundation wants to make,” she said.
