The artist has given the full amount of his twenty-five thousand pound honor cash to the MVT, which works to protect the Britain's independent music venues.
The star was given the prize on October 16 as his third album the album was chosen as the top album of the previous year.
The musician has decided to give the cash to the trust, in acknowledgment of the essential function small stages had in his initial steps.
"I would not have achieved this success if it hadn't been for all the performances I performed around the North East, and further afield, when I was beginning," remarked Sam Fender. "These spaces are legendary, but they are struggling."
From early 2023 onward, at least 150 of these venues have permanently closed – about one-sixth of the whole industry in the UK.
In the last year, major artists including the band Pulp, Coldplay, the singer Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all backed the MVT in its efforts to support the industry, by including a modest fee to their ticket costs, which supports independent venues.
Fender also took part, generating in excess of £100,000 on his live tour to assist numerous local spots across the UK.
These funds supported spaces that were dealing with imminent closure due to issues caused by floods, fire incidents and family tragedies, as well as permit problems, legal disputes and neighbor objections.
Additional spaces were granted monetary aid in upgrading facilities and gear that directly benefitted performers and audiences.
"The notion that money from shows in major spaces supports the independent spots, where it kicks off for artists like me, is just common sense," Sam Fender has said.
Fender is not the first artist to donate his honor funds to charitable organizations.
Back when they won the award in the year 1996 for their record the album, frontman Cocker declared that the band would contribute their prize money to the charity War Child.
During 2002, rapper and singer she shared her prize among multiple organizations, such as the NSPCC and a Sickle Cell organization.
"Additionally, I contributed a £1,000 to Highgate Newtown, to their classes, because I trained in gymnastics when I was a child and they required updated gear," the artist shared with outlets.
Previously, they donated their funds to the community center that developed their group, in addition to other independent music bodies.
And the 1994 recipients M People gave their award to a multiple sclerosis charity after a acquaintance was identified with the illness.
"Receiving the award was ample," said vocalist Heather Small. "The cash was the bonus but we could do without the extra, because we had the honor. So our success impacted another person's life."
In the past week, the MVT shared it had protected several grassroots venues in that region, by bringing them into community ownership.
The first in Southampton and the second in Bristol were purchased under the Own Our Venues program, which is backed by the arts council and music fans who purchase "shares" in the venues.
