Internship Ideas for me

At the start of the semester i was elected to my student government as the next treasurer(cfo, controller, finance chair, etc). I have really enjoyed helping clubs, student groups manage money, help them receive funds, budget properly, etc. but i am not sure what field of finance that would be. For example during budgeting it lasted close to 10 hrs and I enjoyed every moment. What sort of internship or line of work is most similar to this sort of work. I like that i get to help people/work with people, and it's not about making money for myself its about helping other students follow their passions.

You don't have to be ashamed of liking finance work. Check out this article; I think it may give you some peace of mind:

http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-03-06/finance-isn-t-as-amoral-as-it-…

"...The finance professions also attract people who are relatively invulnerable to cognitive dissonance: traders or investment managers who delight in the truth that is ultimately revealed in the market. Troubled by hypocrisy, they seek vindication not by sounding right but by being proved right. Many financial theorists have tried to represent people as merely profit maximizers, perfectly selfish and perfectly rational. But people really do care about their own self-esteem, and profit maximization is at best only a part of that."
