The star has given the full amount of his £25k award prize money to the trust for venues, which works to protect the United Kingdom's grassroots music venues.
The star was given the prize on 16 October as his new release the album was declared the best record of the past year.
Fender has opted to give the cash to the Music Venues Trust, in appreciation of the crucial part grassroots venues fulfilled in his beginning days.
"I would not have achieved this success if it wasn't for all the gigs I did around the area, and elsewhere, when I was starting out," stated the artist. "These spaces are iconic, but they are in difficulty."
Beginning in 2023, more than 150 of these locations have ceased operations – about 16% of the entire UK sector.
Recently, well-known musicians including Pulp, Coldplay, Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all aided the Music Venues Trust in its efforts to keep the scene afloat, by adding a modest fee to their ticket costs, which supports smaller concert halls.
He also participated, raising in excess of £100,000 on his live tour to assist numerous local spots across the UK.
The money assisted venues that were confronting imminent closure due to challenges stemming from flooding, blazes and bereavements, as well as licensing issues, conflicts and neighbor objections.
Other venues received financial assistance in upgrading amenities and gear that directly benefitted performers and audiences.
"The idea that money from shows in major spaces helps the smaller venues, where it all starts for performers like me, is just common sense," Sam Fender has said.
The musician is among several artists to donate his honor prize money to worthy causes.
In the band earned the trophy in 1996 for their record the album, lead singer Cocker announced that the band would contribute their winnings to the charity War Child.
In 2002, rapper and singer she divided her award across a few good causes, like the NSPCC and a charity for Sickle Cell.
"Additionally, I gave a thousand pounds to the center, to their gymnastics class, because I practiced gymnastics when I was a child and they needed new equipment," Ms Dynamite told the media.
Two years ago, the band donated their winnings to the local youth club that developed their act, as well as other grassroots music organisations.
Also the 1994 recipients the group donated their winnings to a charity for MS after a acquaintance was found to have the illness.
"Receiving the award was ample," said singer Small. "The cash was the cherry on top but we didn't require the bonus, because we had the cake. So our victory touched the lives of others."
In the past week, the Music Venues Trust announced it had saved two grassroots venues in the South East, by bringing them into community ownership.
The Joiners in the city and the other in the city were bought under the community ownership program, which is funded by Arts Council England and supporters who purchase "shares" in the buildings.
