The star has donated the complete sum of his £25k honor cash to the MVT, which operates to protect the Britain's grassroots concert spaces.
Fender was presented with the award on October 16 as his new release the album was declared the best record of the last 12 months.
He has decided to hand the money over to the trust, in recognition of the vital role small stages had in his early career.
"I personally wouldn't be doing this success if it weren't for all the performances I played around the region, and beyond, when I was starting out," remarked the artist. "These spaces are iconic, but they are facing challenges."
From early 2023 onward, more than 150 of these spaces have shut down – roughly 16 percent of the entire UK sector.
Over the past year, major artists such as Pulp, Coldplay, the singer Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all backed the MVT in its efforts to keep the scene afloat, by applying a minor surcharge to their admission fees, which supports independent venues.
Sam Fender also participated, generating more than £100,000 on his live tour to assist numerous grassroots venues across the UK.
These funds assisted locations that were facing possible closure due to issues caused by floods, blazes and bereavements, as well as regulatory hurdles, court cases and noise complaints.
Other venues were granted funding support in upgrading infrastructure and technical equipment that directly benefitted musicians and fans.
"The notion that revenue from shows in major spaces supports the smaller venues, where it all starts for performers like me, is just logical," the star has stated.
Fender is among several artists to give his honor prize money to worthy causes.
Back when they earned the trophy in 1996 for their release their work, vocalist the singer declared that the group would give their winnings to the non-profit War Child.
In 2002, rapper and singer Ms Dynamite split her bounty across multiple organizations, including the NSPCC and a Sickle Cell organization.
"I also contributed a £1,000 to my local community centre, to their gymnastics program, because I practiced gymnastics when I was younger and they lacked updated gear," Ms Dynamite told the media.
Two years ago, the band contributed their funds to the community center that developed their act, in addition to other independent music bodies.
Also winners that year they gave their award to a charity for MS after a friend was diagnosed the condition.
"Winning was ample," remarked artist Small. "The money was the bonus but we didn't need the bonus, because we had the honor. So our victory touched another person's life."
Last week, the trust revealed it had saved two local spots in that region, by bringing them into community ownership.
The first in the city and The Croft in that location were bought under the public acquisition scheme, which is funded by the arts council and enthusiasts who buy "ownership units" in the properties.
