The star has given the entirety of his £25k honor prize money to the MVT, which works to save the UK's independent live music spots.
The star was given the cheque on 16 October as his new release his work was named the best record of the last 12 months.
The musician has decided to give the cash to the Music Venues Trust, in acknowledgment of the crucial part small stages fulfilled in his beginning days.
"As an artist would not have achieved this success if it wasn't for all the shows I played around the area, and further afield, when I was beginning," remarked Sam Fender. "These venues are legendary, but they are struggling."
Since the start of 2023, at least 150 of these venues have shut down – about one-sixth of the whole industry in the UK.
Recently, top acts including the band Pulp, Coldplay, Katy Perry and Sheeran have all supported the MVT in its attempts to help venues survive, by applying a modest fee to their admission fees, which goes to help smaller concert halls.
He also took part, collecting in excess of £100,000 on his recent tour to help thirty-eight grassroots venues across the UK.
These funds supported venues that were confronting possible closure due to difficulties arising from flooding, fire incidents and personal losses, as well as permit problems, legal disputes and sound issues.
Other venues obtained monetary aid in modernizing infrastructure and gear that directly benefitted performers and fans.
"The concept that funds from performances in major spaces supports the independent spots, where it begins for performers like me, is just sensible," Fender has stated.
The musician is not the first artist to donate his award prize money to worthy causes.
Back when they earned the trophy in the year 1996 for their album Different Class, lead singer Jarvis Cocker declared that the act would contribute their prize money to the non-profit War Child.
That year, rapper and singer the artist shared her award across several good causes, including the NSPCC and a charity for Sickle Cell.
"I also contributed a £1,000 to the center, to their gymnastics class, because I practiced gymnastics when I was a child and they lacked better apparatus," Ms Dynamite shared with a publication.
Two years ago, the band contributed their funds to the youth organization that supported their act, in addition to other local music groups.
And the 1994 recipients M People donated their award to a MS organization after a acquaintance was diagnosed the illness.
"Receiving the award was ample," said artist Small. "The money was the bonus but we didn't require the extra, because we had the main prize. So our success impacted the lives of others."
In the past week, the Music Venues Trust announced it had rescued two small stages in that region, by placing them under public stewardship.
One venue in the city and the second in Bristol were acquired under the public acquisition initiative, which is supported by a national body and supporters who acquire "ownership units" in the properties.
