Sophomore Summer Internship Help

Sophomore at non target here. Have been trying to find something for sophomore summer for the last 6-7 months but everytime I think I am getting close to an offer something out of my control happens and screws things up for me. Pretty strong resume with 3 relevant experiences. Have mainly just been emailing smaller PE funds and IB shops. I will be interviewing with firms for junior summer next month and really want something before then but also need to have an internship for sophomore summer in general. How should I approach this? If anyone knows what to do/has any ideas or tips would mean a lot
