The star has donated the complete sum of his twenty-five thousand pound award cash to the MVT, which works to preserve the UK's small live music spots.
Fender was presented with the prize on 16 October as his new release the album was chosen as the best record of the last 12 months.
Fender has chosen to donate the funds to the Music Venues Trust, in acknowledgment of the essential function small stages fulfilled in his initial steps.
"I personally couldn't be pursuing what I am doing today if it weren't for all the shows I performed around the North East, and elsewhere, when I was beginning," remarked Sam Fender. "These venues are renowned, but they are facing challenges."
Beginning in 2023, more than 150 of these locations have ceased operations – roughly one-sixth of the entire UK sector.
In the last year, top acts like the band Pulp, Coldplay, Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all aided the trust in its attempts to help venues survive, by applying a minor surcharge to their ticket prices, which supports independent venues.
He also participated, collecting in excess of £100,000 on his live tour to support numerous small stages across the UK.
These funds helped spaces that were facing potential shutdown due to issues arising from floods, blazes and bereavements, as well as regulatory hurdles, conflicts and sound issues.
Other venues obtained monetary aid in upgrading infrastructure and gear that helped artists and fans.
"The notion that money from concerts in large arenas supports the independent spots, where it all starts for artists like me, is just common sense," the star has stated.
He is not the first artist to donate his honor prize money to charitable organizations.
When the band received the prize in the year 1996 for their record the album, frontman the singer announced that the group would give their winnings to the organization War Child.
During 2002, rapper and singer Ms Dynamite divided her prize across multiple good causes, such as the NSPCC and a Sickle Cell organization.
"And I gave a thousand pounds to the center, to their gymnastics class, because I practiced gymnastics when I was younger and they lacked updated gear," she shared with the media.
In recent years, they gave their winnings to the local youth club that developed their band, as well as other independent music bodies.
And 1994 winners they gave their prize to a charity for MS after a friend was diagnosed the disease.
"The victory was sufficient," remarked artist Heather Small. "The cash was the bonus but we didn't require the bonus, because we had the main prize. So our victory touched somebody else's life."
In the past week, the Music Venues Trust shared it had rescued several local spots in that region, by transferring them to local control.
The Joiners in that area and the second in the city were acquired under the public acquisition initiative, which is backed by the arts council and music fans who buy "shares" in the properties.
