In all honesty yes, it would help more than most things they get.
The problem is that some of the ice is so old that it could take thousands of years to replace what a few dozen years of melt can do. Basically the ice is formed by water picked up over the high humid forests, almost like lake effect snow is formed here. The natives have done so much damage to the forests that they better start getting their water from somewhere else when the glaciers completely melt, for mother nature it might be a blink of the eye to replace them but to Hajiji and his family it will be several lifetimes.
