The artist has donated the complete sum of his twenty-five thousand pound honor prize money to the MVT, which functions to save the Britain's small live music spots.
The star was presented with the award on mid-October as his third album his work was named the top album of the past year.
Fender has opted to donate the funds to the MVT, in recognition of the vital role small stages had in his early career.
"I would not have achieved what I am doing today if it hadn't been for all the gigs I did around the area, and elsewhere, when I was beginning," remarked Sam Fender. "These venues are renowned, but they are facing challenges."
Since the start of 2023, at least 150 of these venues have ceased operations – roughly one-sixth of the whole industry in the UK.
Recently, major artists such as Pulp, the group Coldplay, the singer Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all supported the Music Venues Trust in its attempts to help venues survive, by applying a small levy to their ticket prices, which benefits independent venues.
He also joined in, collecting more than £100,000 on his 2024 arena tour to support thirty-eight local spots across the UK.
These funds helped locations that were dealing with potential shutdown due to issues stemming from flooding, fires and personal losses, as well as licensing issues, court cases and noise complaints.
Additional spaces obtained financial assistance in upgrading facilities and sound and lighting systems that directly benefitted performers and audiences.
"The idea that money from concerts in major spaces helps the independent spots, where it kicks off for artists like me, is just common sense," Fender has said.
The musician is not the first artist to donate his honor funds to good deeds.
Back when the band won the award in the mid-90s for their album Different Class, lead singer Jarvis Cocker announced that the band would donate their prize money to the charity the charity.
In 2002, rapper and singer Ms Dynamite split her prize between several charities, including the NSPCC and a charity for Sickle Cell.
"And I donated a grand to Highgate Newtown, to their gymnastics class, because I did gymnastics when I was a child and they lacked better apparatus," the artist told a publication.
Two years ago, Ezra Collective gave their winnings to the youth organization that nurtured their group, alongside other grassroots music organisations.
And 1994 winners M People contributed their prize to a multiple sclerosis charity after a acquaintance was diagnosed the disease.
"The victory was sufficient," stated artist Small. "The cash was the bonus but we didn't need the extra, because we had the honor. So our success impacted the lives of others."
In the past week, the trust announced it had saved several grassroots venues in south-east England, by transferring them to public stewardship.
The first in Southampton and The Croft in the city were acquired under the community ownership scheme, which is funded by a national body and supporters who buy "shares" in the properties.
