SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 16 /PRNewswire/ -- YouthNoise the Internet's first social network for social change, and Alloy Media + Marketing, a widely recognized pioneer in nontraditional marketing with focus on the youth market, today announced the launch of MyCause, an online means for young people to activate their passions for social change. MyCause will be introduced and integrated into Sconex, Alloy Media + Marketing's fast growing social networking property connecting high school students nationwide. The partnership marks the first initiative to provide the tools and access for teens to pursue interests across social and political issues in the online community forum.

MyCause will give Sconex users the ability to access YouthNoise's content by way of six easily navigated groups -- Animal Rights, Government, Poverty, Violence, War, Peace & Terrorism, and Life. Each cause on this network includes forums for teens to voice their opinions, create blogs and allow users to upload photos and text to post along with their entries.
