I don’t think it will hurt, but I do think unless you made a significant impact on a person it definitely won’t help you. Impersonal recs are just thrown aside. They don’t care about who necessarily, whats more important to them is how the letter paints you as a person. That is the goal of these letters, to let the school know who you are, based on how others perceive you.
