The aim of the association was to collect, collect and present photos and documents that escaped destruction during the war and which retrace the route of Jewish immigration and integration into the nation from 1880 to 1948.

The association of Hidden Children was an independent association (law of 1901) gathering, more particularly, Jewish people who, being children during the Second World War, were hidden to flee racial persecution.
It was created in 1992 to allow its members to express themselves, to bear witness and to transmit what they experienced during the Holocaust. She set up discussion groups that allowed the hidden children to find each other, to express their past difficulties, and to listen to others.
The association has created a memotheque made up of complete testimonies of hidden children and rescuers.
It has published a quarterly bulletin, distributed worldwide, which has published numerous articles on the history of individual or collective rescue and search notices in order to find rescuers or companions.
Since 2002, and thanks to the "Paroles d'étoiles" operation, the Association has been regularly asked by the Ministry of National Education to participate, from memory, in the formation of responsible citizenship.
The association was dissolved in late 2008.
The association "Convoi 77" was officially created on 25 October 2014. The Board of Directors is composed of 11 members. Three officers make up the Bureau: Georges Mayer, President – Véronique Likforman, General Secretary – Henri Assouline, Treasurer.
The purpose of the association Convoi 77 is to rally around the families and friends of the deportees from convoy 77 – the last large convoy that left Drancy on 31 July 1944 for Auschwitz, carrying 1,344 men to the death camp, women and children – all those affected by the Memory of the Shoah in order to perpetuate the memory of the deportees, their history, their fate, to participate in the further transmission of the Memory of the Shoah as well as to make a contribution to research and teaching about the Shoah.
