how many MDs should i cold email at an IB?

For instance, i have the contact details for multiple MDs and heads at a branch of a small firm near me. I'm looking for any unpaid work experience. Should I reach out to and email everyone whose details i have, or should i only email one, for fear of it coming across as weird? or one person letting me intern, while the other denies/ghosts. not sure what's most appropriate here. i feel like emailing everyone maximizes my chances but idk.
