The artist has given the entirety of his twenty-five thousand pound award cash to the MVT, which works to preserve the United Kingdom's small concert spaces.
The star was given the cheque on 16 October as his third album People Watching was chosen as the top album of the last 12 months.
The musician has decided to donate the funds to the Music Venues Trust, in acknowledgment of the essential function local spots fulfilled in his initial steps.
"I personally wouldn't be doing my current career if it weren't for all the shows I did around the North East, and beyond, when I was just getting going," said Sam Fender. "These spaces are legendary, but they are in difficulty."
Beginning in 2023, more than 150 of these spaces have ceased operations – about one-sixth of the total UK scene.
In the last year, top acts like Pulp, the group Coldplay, the singer Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all backed the MVT in its initiatives to help venues survive, by adding a modest fee to their ticket costs, which supports independent venues.
Fender also joined in, raising more than £100,000 on his recent tour to help 38 local spots across the UK.
These funds helped locations that were confronting imminent closure due to difficulties caused by floods, fires and personal losses, as well as licensing issues, legal disputes and noise complaints.
Some locations were granted monetary aid in improving amenities and technical equipment that helped performers and concertgoers.
"The idea that money from concerts in big venues supports the independent spots, where it begins for performers like me, is just sensible," the star has said.
Fender is among several artists to give his award prize money to good deeds.
Back when the band earned the trophy in the year 1996 for their release their work, vocalist the singer declared that the group would give their winnings to the non-profit War Child.
During 2002, artist she split her award among a few organizations, like the NSPCC and a charity for Sickle Cell.
"I also contributed a thousand pounds to my local community centre, to their classes, because I trained in gymnastics when I was a child and they needed updated gear," Ms Dynamite shared with outlets.
Two years ago, they contributed their funds to the community center that developed their band, as well as other local music groups.
Also winners that year M People gave their award to a charity for MS after a close contact was identified with the illness.
"The victory was quite enough," remarked vocalist the singer. "The prize was the bonus but we didn't need the extra, because we had the cake. So our winning affected somebody else's life."
In the past week, the Music Venues Trust shared it had saved a couple of grassroots venues in that region, by transferring them to public stewardship.
One venue in Southampton and The Croft in that location were acquired under the public acquisition initiative, which is funded by the arts council and enthusiasts who purchase "shares" in the properties.
