The star has given the full amount of his £25,000 Mercury Prize cash to the MVT, which works to preserve the UK's grassroots live music spots.
The star was given the prize on mid-October as his third album the album was named the best record of the past year.
The musician has decided to give the cash to the MVT, in appreciation of the vital role local spots fulfilled in his early career.
"I wouldn't be doing my current career if it weren't for all the performances I performed around the region, and elsewhere, when I was beginning," remarked Sam Fender. "These venues are renowned, but they are in difficulty."
Beginning in 2023, at least 150 of these spaces have ceased operations – about one-sixth of the total UK scene.
Over the past year, major artists including Pulp, Coldplay, Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all supported the MVT in its attempts to support the industry, by including a small levy to their ticket costs, which goes to help local stages.
He also took part, raising over £100k on his recent tour to support thirty-eight small stages across England, Scotland, and Wales.
The money supported spaces that were facing possible closure due to challenges stemming from flooding, blazes and family tragedies, as well as licensing issues, legal disputes and sound issues.
Some locations were granted monetary aid in upgrading facilities and technical equipment that directly benefitted artists and audiences.
"The notion that revenue from concerts in large arenas supports the smaller venues, where it kicks off for performers like me, is just common sense," Sam Fender has said.
Fender is among several artists to donate his honor winnings to good deeds.
In they earned the prize in the mid-90s for their release their work, frontman the singer declared that the group would contribute their cash to the non-profit War Child.
During 2002, artist Ms Dynamite shared her prize across a few charities, including the NSPCC and a charity for Sickle Cell.
"And I donated a £1,000 to Highgate Newtown, to their gymnastics program, because I did gymnastics when I was growing up and they needed new equipment," she told a publication.
In recent years, they donated their prize money to the youth organization that nurtured their band, alongside other independent music bodies.
Additionally winners that year M People contributed their award to a multiple sclerosis charity after a close contact was identified with the illness.
"Receiving the award was sufficient," stated singer Small. "The prize was the bonus but we didn't need the bonus, because we had the main prize. So our success affected somebody else's life."
Last week, the Music Venues Trust announced it had protected a couple of small stages in that region, by placing them under public stewardship.
One venue in the city and the second in Bristol were acquired under the Own Our Venues initiative, which is funded by the arts council and enthusiasts who buy "stakes" in the venues.
