The star has given the entirety of his £25,000 honor cash to the trust for venues, which operates to save the UK's grassroots music venues.
He was presented with the award on October 16 as his latest record his work was chosen as the outstanding release of the previous year.
Fender has decided to hand the money over to the trust, in recognition of the essential function grassroots venues had in his early career.
"I personally wouldn't be doing my current career if it hadn't been for all the gigs I performed around the North East, and beyond, when I was beginning," remarked Sam Fender. "These spaces are renowned, but they are facing challenges."
Since the start of 2023, more than 150 of these spaces have shut down – approximately 16 percent of the entire UK sector.
Over the past year, top acts including Pulp, the group Coldplay, the singer Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all aided the MVT in its initiatives to keep the scene afloat, by including a small levy to their ticket costs, which goes to help smaller concert halls.
Sam Fender also took part, generating over £100k on his recent tour to support 38 small stages across the UK.
The donation assisted spaces that were facing potential shutdown due to challenges stemming from flooding, blazes and bereavements, as well as regulatory hurdles, court cases and sound issues.
Some locations received monetary aid in modernizing facilities and gear that positively impacted performers and concertgoers.
"The idea that revenue from concerts in big venues helps the smaller venues, where it kicks off for musicians like me, is just sensible," the star has stated.
He is far from the only musician to donate his honor prize money to good deeds.
Back when Pulp won the trophy in the year 1996 for their record their work, lead singer the singer announced that the group would donate their prize money to the non-profit the charity.
During 2002, musician she split her award across multiple organizations, including the NSPCC and a Sickle Cell organization.
"And I gave a £1,000 to Highgate Newtown, to their gymnastics program, because I practiced gymnastics when I was a child and they lacked updated gear," she shared with the media.
In recent years, they contributed their prize money to the community center that developed their group, in addition to other local music groups.
Also the 1994 recipients the group contributed their award to a MS organization after a friend was identified with the disease.
"The victory was quite enough," said artist the singer. "The prize was the extra but we didn't need the extra, because we had the cake. So our success touched the lives of others."
In the past week, the trust shared it had rescued a couple of local spots in that region, by transferring them to public stewardship.
The first in Southampton and The Croft in the city were purchased under the public acquisition program, which is funded by Arts Council England and music fans who acquire "shares" in the venues.
