Signs of hope from Gauteng government: along with some coverage of the refurbished Johannesburg library, the attractive quarter-page advertisement in Thursday's The Citizen for applications from NPOs for funding for reading programmes gives hope to your readers.

I'm certain I speak for all of us in saying that the details described in the advert and the news coverage paints a rainbow of hope that we need so badly.
