The star has donated the full amount of his £25k award winnings to the MVT, which works to protect the UK's small concert spaces.
The star was awarded the prize on mid-October as his third album his work was declared the outstanding release of the last 12 months.
He has decided to hand the money over to the Music Venues Trust, in appreciation of the vital role grassroots venues fulfilled in his initial steps.
"I personally couldn't be pursuing this success if it hadn't been for all the gigs I did around the region, and elsewhere, when I was just getting going," said Sam Fender. "These locations are iconic, but they are in difficulty."
From early 2023 onward, over 150 of these spaces have shut down – roughly 16 percent of the whole industry in the UK.
Over the past year, major artists such as Pulp, Coldplay, the singer Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all supported the trust in its efforts to support the industry, by applying a modest fee to their ticket prices, which benefits independent venues.
He also joined in, generating more than £100,000 on his live tour to support thirty-eight small stages across England, Scotland, and Wales.
The donation assisted locations that were confronting potential shutdown due to challenges arising from floods, fire incidents and personal losses, as well as licensing issues, legal disputes and neighbor objections.
Other venues obtained funding support in modernizing infrastructure and sound and lighting systems that positively impacted artists and audiences.
"The concept that money from performances in large arenas helps the local stages, where it all starts for musicians like me, is just logical," the star has said.
He is among several artists to donate his honor funds to good deeds.
In they received the award in 1996 for their record their work, vocalist Cocker stated that the act would contribute their winnings to the organization War Child.
In 2002, rapper and singer she split her award between several charities, including the NSPCC and a Sickle Cell organization.
"Additionally, I contributed a grand to Highgate Newtown, to their gymnastics class, because I practiced gymnastics when I was younger and they required updated gear," Ms Dynamite told a publication.
In recent years, the band gave their prize money to the community center that supported their act, in addition to other independent music bodies.
Also winners that year M People gave their award to a multiple sclerosis charity after a acquaintance was diagnosed the disease.
"Winning was ample," said artist Heather Small. "The prize was the bonus but we could do without the cherry, because we had the cake. So our victory impacted another person's life."
Last week, the MVT announced it had saved two local spots in south-east England, by placing them under community ownership.
The first in Southampton and the second in Bristol were purchased under the public acquisition program, which is supported by the arts council and enthusiasts who buy "shares" in the buildings.
