The star has given the entirety of his twenty-five thousand pound award prize money to the trust for venues, which functions to save the Britain's independent music venues.
The star was awarded the cheque on 16 October as his third album his work was chosen as the top album of the past year.
The musician has decided to donate the funds to the MVT, in acknowledgment of the crucial part small stages fulfilled in his early career.
"I personally would not have achieved this success if it weren't for all the gigs I played around the North East, and elsewhere, when I was beginning," stated Fender. "These spaces are iconic, but they are facing challenges."
Since the start of 2023, more than 150 of these spaces have shut down – roughly 16 percent of the whole industry in the UK.
Recently, top acts including Pulp, the group Coldplay, Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all supported the MVT in its attempts to support the industry, by including a small levy to their admission fees, which benefits independent venues.
He also took part, collecting in excess of £100,000 on his live tour to support numerous local spots across Britain.
The money supported spaces that were facing possible closure due to difficulties arising from flooding, blazes and personal losses, as well as regulatory hurdles, court cases and sound issues.
Additional spaces received financial assistance in upgrading amenities and technical equipment that positively impacted performers and fans.
"The concept that money from shows in large arenas backs the local stages, where it all starts for performers like me, is just common sense," Sam Fender has commented.
He is far from the only musician to give his award prize money to worthy causes.
Back when they earned the award in 1996 for their record the album, lead singer the singer declared that the band would give their winnings to the charity War Child.
In 2002, artist she shared her award between several charities, such as the children's charity and a charity for Sickle Cell.
"Additionally, I donated a thousand pounds to the center, to their classes, because I practiced gymnastics when I was a child and they lacked new equipment," Ms Dynamite explained to outlets.
Previously, the band donated their funds to the community center that supported their act, alongside other independent music bodies.
And winners that year they contributed their prize to a multiple sclerosis charity after a close contact was found to have the condition.
"Receiving the award was quite enough," stated artist Small. "The prize was the bonus but we didn't require the cherry, because we had the main prize. So our success impacted the lives of others."
Last week, the Music Venues Trust announced it had protected several grassroots venues in that region, by bringing them into community ownership.
The first in that area and the second in Bristol were purchased under the Own Our Venues scheme, which is funded by the arts council and music fans who purchase "shares" in the venues.
