The artist has donated the complete sum of his twenty-five thousand pound award cash to the trust for venues, which operates to preserve the United Kingdom's independent live music spots.
The star was awarded the award on 16 October as his third album the album was chosen as the outstanding release of the past year.
Fender has opted to donate the funds to the trust, in appreciation of the crucial part small stages had in his early career.
"I personally couldn't be pursuing what I am doing today if it hadn't been for all the gigs I did around the region, and elsewhere, when I was starting out," said Fender. "These locations are renowned, but they are in difficulty."
Beginning in 2023, at least 150 of these venues have permanently closed – approximately 16 percent of the entire UK sector.
Recently, major artists including Pulp, Coldplay, Katy Perry and Sheeran have all backed the trust in its initiatives to keep the scene afloat, by adding a minor surcharge to their ticket costs, which supports local stages.
Fender also participated, collecting over £100k on his live tour to assist numerous grassroots venues across Britain.
These funds helped spaces that were facing possible closure due to difficulties caused by flooding, fires and bereavements, as well as permit problems, legal disputes and sound issues.
Some locations were granted monetary aid in modernizing amenities and sound and lighting systems that positively impacted performers and concertgoers.
"The idea that funds from performances in major spaces backs the local stages, where it all starts for musicians like me, is just logical," Sam Fender has commented.
Fender is not the first artist to contribute his award winnings to worthy causes.
When the band won the trophy in the mid-90s for their record their work, frontman the singer announced that the act would donate their prize money to the charity War Child.
That year, musician she split her award between several good causes, such as the NSPCC and a Sickle Cell charity.
"Additionally, I contributed a grand to my local community centre, to their gymnastics program, because I trained in gymnastics when I was a child and they lacked new equipment," Ms Dynamite shared with outlets.
Two years ago, they donated their winnings to the community center that nurtured their group, alongside other local music groups.
And 1994 winners they contributed their winnings to a multiple sclerosis charity after a friend was diagnosed the illness.
"Receiving the award was quite enough," remarked artist Small. "The cash was the bonus but we could do without the extra, because we had the cake. So our winning impacted another person's life."
In the past week, the MVT shared it had rescued two small stages in that region, by bringing them into public stewardship.
The first in Southampton and the other in that location were acquired under the Own Our Venues program, which is backed by Arts Council England and enthusiasts who buy "ownership units" in the buildings.
