The artist has donated the complete sum of his £25,000 award prize money to the trust for venues, which functions to save the UK's independent music venues.
Fender was awarded the award on October 16 as his new release his work was named the outstanding release of the last 12 months.
He has opted to give the cash to the MVT, in appreciation of the vital role grassroots venues fulfilled in his early career.
"I personally couldn't be pursuing this success if it hadn't been for all the shows I did around the North East, and elsewhere, when I was beginning," said Sam Fender. "These locations are renowned, but they are in difficulty."
Beginning in 2023, at least 150 of these spaces have shut down – approximately one-sixth of the entire UK sector.
Recently, well-known musicians such as the band Pulp, the group Coldplay, the singer Katy Perry and Sheeran have all aided the MVT in its efforts to keep the scene afloat, by applying a small levy to their ticket prices, which goes to help local stages.
Fender also participated, raising more than £100,000 on his recent tour to support numerous grassroots venues across the UK.
The donation supported locations that were facing imminent closure due to difficulties stemming from floods, fire incidents and bereavements, as well as regulatory hurdles, conflicts and sound issues.
Additional spaces obtained monetary aid in modernizing facilities and gear that positively impacted artists and concertgoers.
"The idea that revenue from shows in big venues backs the local stages, where it kicks off for artists like me, is just sensible," Fender has stated.
He is far from the only musician to donate his honor funds to good deeds.
Back when they earned the award in the year 1996 for their album the album, vocalist the singer stated that the group would contribute their cash to the charity War Child.
In 2002, musician she shared her prize between multiple organizations, like the NSPCC and a charity for Sickle Cell.
"And I gave a thousand pounds to the center, to their gymnastics class, because I did gymnastics when I was growing up and they lacked updated gear," she explained to outlets.
In recent years, the band gave their winnings to the youth organization that nurtured their band, in addition to other local music groups.
Also winners that year the group gave their prize to a charity for MS after a close contact was identified with the disease.
"The victory was sufficient," said artist Heather Small. "The money was the extra but we didn't need the bonus, because we had the main prize. So our victory touched another person's life."
Last week, the Music Venues Trust shared it had protected a couple of small stages in south-east England, by bringing them into local control.
One venue in that area and the second in the city were purchased under the community ownership program, which is supported by a national body and enthusiasts who acquire "stakes" in the venues.
