Internship for summer before college

I’m going to be a freshman at the university of Chicago next fall and I really wanted to find an internship for this coming summer. I don’t have any family working in finance or connections to utilize so I’m at a loss as to how to find one. I’ve already cold contacted some local places but nothing yet. I was hoping to use the internship to get a leg up for my applications to the more competitive finance clubs on campus. Has anyone gotten an internship in their senior summer? And if so how?
