The star has handed over the entirety of his £25,000 award prize money to the MVT, which works to preserve the Britain's independent concert spaces.
The star was presented with the cheque on 16 October as his third album People Watching was declared the outstanding release of the previous year.
He has opted to hand the money over to the trust, in recognition of the crucial part local spots played in his early career.
"I wouldn't be doing my current career if it hadn't been for all the performances I played around the North East, and further afield, when I was beginning," remarked Sam Fender. "These locations are iconic, but they are struggling."
Since the start of 2023, at least 150 of these venues have permanently closed – roughly 16 percent of the entire UK sector.
Over the past year, well-known musicians including the band Pulp, the group Coldplay, Katy Perry and Sheeran have all aided the Music Venues Trust in its efforts to support the industry, by applying a minor surcharge to their admission fees, which supports smaller concert halls.
He also participated, collecting in excess of £100,000 on his live tour to assist 38 grassroots venues across Britain.
The donation assisted venues that were facing potential shutdown due to challenges arising from water damage, blazes and personal losses, as well as licensing issues, court cases and sound issues.
Additional spaces obtained financial assistance in upgrading amenities and technical equipment that directly benefitted musicians and fans.
"The idea that revenue from concerts in major spaces supports the smaller venues, where it kicks off for artists like me, is just logical," Fender has said.
He is not the first artist to donate his award funds to charitable organizations.
In the band won the trophy in 1996 for their release the album, frontman the singer announced that the band would give their prize money to the non-profit War Child.
During 2002, artist Ms Dynamite split her award among multiple charities, including the children's charity and a Sickle Cell charity.
"Additionally, I donated a thousand pounds to the center, to their gymnastics program, because I trained in gymnastics when I was younger and they lacked updated gear," Ms Dynamite explained to outlets.
In recent years, they contributed their winnings to the community center that supported their group, as well as other grassroots music organisations.
Additionally the 1994 recipients they donated their prize to a multiple sclerosis charity after a close contact was identified with the illness.
"Winning was quite enough," stated vocalist Heather Small. "The cash was the bonus but we could do without the extra, because we had the main prize. So our victory touched another person's life."
In the past week, the Music Venues Trust shared it had protected several local spots in that region, by transferring them to community ownership.
One venue in that area and the second in Bristol were acquired under the community ownership scheme, which is supported by Arts Council England and enthusiasts who acquire "stakes" in the venues.
