The star has given the complete sum of his £25k award cash to the MVT, which works to save the UK's grassroots live music spots.
Fender was given the prize on mid-October as his latest record his work was chosen as the top album of the last 12 months.
Fender has decided to give the cash to the MVT, in appreciation of the essential function grassroots venues fulfilled in his early career.
"I personally would not have achieved what I am doing today if it hadn't been for all the performances I played around the North East, and further afield, when I was just getting going," stated the artist. "These spaces are iconic, but they are facing challenges."
Beginning in 2023, over 150 of these locations have ceased operations – about 16 percent of the entire UK sector.
Recently, major artists including Pulp, Coldplay, the singer Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all aided the trust in its efforts to support the industry, by applying a minor surcharge to their admission fees, which goes to help smaller concert halls.
Sam Fender also took part, generating over £100k on his recent tour to help thirty-eight small stages across Britain.
The money helped locations that were dealing with potential shutdown due to issues arising from floods, blazes and bereavements, as well as permit problems, court cases and noise complaints.
Other venues obtained monetary aid in improving amenities and sound and lighting systems that helped musicians and concertgoers.
"The concept that funds from performances in major spaces supports the independent spots, where it all starts for musicians like me, is just logical," the star has stated.
He is among several artists to contribute his award funds to good deeds.
Back when the band won the award in 1996 for their album the album, vocalist the singer declared that the band would contribute their cash to the charity War Child.
In 2002, musician she split her award across several charities, such as the NSPCC and a Sickle Cell organization.
"And I contributed a £1,000 to the center, to their gymnastics class, because I trained in gymnastics when I was younger and they needed better apparatus," the artist told the media.
Two years ago, Ezra Collective gave their funds to the youth organization that nurtured their group, in addition to other grassroots music organisations.
Also the 1994 recipients the group gave their prize to a charity for MS after a acquaintance was diagnosed the disease.
"Receiving the award was quite enough," stated singer Heather Small. "The prize was the extra but we didn't require the bonus, because we had the cake. So our victory touched the lives of others."
In the past week, the Music Venues Trust announced it had protected several grassroots venues in south-east England, by placing them under local control.
The first in Southampton and the second in Bristol were acquired under the public acquisition initiative, which is funded by a national body and music fans who acquire "stakes" in the buildings.
