The artist has donated the full amount of his £25k award winnings to the trust for venues, which works to protect the UK's small live music spots.
Fender was presented with the award on October 16 as his third album his work was chosen as the top album of the previous year.
The musician has decided to donate the funds to the trust, in appreciation of the crucial part local spots fulfilled in his beginning days.
"I personally couldn't be pursuing what I am doing today if it wasn't for all the performances I played around the North East, and further afield, when I was just getting going," stated Sam Fender. "These spaces are iconic, but they are struggling."
Beginning in 2023, more than 150 of these venues have ceased operations – about 16 percent of the entire UK sector.
Recently, top acts including Pulp, Coldplay, the singer Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all supported the MVT in its efforts to help venues survive, by adding a minor surcharge to their admission fees, which supports smaller concert halls.
He also took part, generating in excess of £100,000 on his 2024 arena tour to assist 38 local spots across Britain.
The money assisted spaces that were facing imminent closure due to issues caused by water damage, blazes and bereavements, as well as licensing issues, court cases and noise complaints.
Some locations received financial assistance in modernizing amenities and gear that helped musicians and concertgoers.
"The concept that revenue from concerts in big venues helps the smaller venues, where it begins for performers like me, is just logical," Sam Fender has stated.
The musician is among several artists to give his award winnings to worthy causes.
When the band received the award in the mid-90s for their release the album, frontman Cocker announced that the group would donate their prize money to the charity the charity.
In 2002, rapper and singer she divided her award across several charities, like the NSPCC and a charity for Sickle Cell.
"Additionally, I donated a £1,000 to the center, to their gymnastics class, because I trained in gymnastics when I was growing up and they needed new equipment," Ms Dynamite explained to a publication.
Previously, they donated their funds to the youth organization that developed their act, in addition to other independent music bodies.
Additionally the 1994 recipients they gave their prize to a MS organization after a friend was identified with the illness.
"Receiving the award was quite enough," said artist the singer. "The money was the bonus but we didn't need the bonus, because we had the main prize. So our success affected another person's life."
Recently, the trust announced it had protected two local spots in south-east England, by placing them under local control.
The Joiners in Southampton and the other in the city were acquired under the community ownership initiative, which is supported by a national body and music fans who buy "stakes" in the buildings.
