The star has donated the full amount of his £25k Mercury Prize prize money to the MVT, which works to protect the United Kingdom's independent concert spaces.
Fender was presented with the award on 16 October as his third album his work was named the top album of the previous year.
Fender has decided to donate the funds to the Music Venues Trust, in recognition of the essential function small stages played in his initial steps.
"I wouldn't be doing what I am doing today if it hadn't been for all the performances I played around the area, and further afield, when I was starting out," said Sam Fender. "These locations are iconic, but they are in difficulty."
Beginning in 2023, over 150 of these locations have shut down – about 16 percent of the whole industry in the UK.
Over the past year, well-known musicians including the band Pulp, Coldplay, the singer Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all aided the Music Venues Trust in its initiatives to support the industry, by including a modest fee to their ticket costs, which benefits smaller concert halls.
Fender also took part, raising in excess of £100,000 on his live tour to support numerous local spots across Britain.
The money helped spaces that were dealing with imminent closure due to difficulties stemming from floods, blazes and bereavements, as well as permit problems, court cases and neighbor objections.
Other venues received funding support in upgrading facilities and gear that positively impacted artists and fans.
"The idea that revenue from concerts in big venues helps the local stages, where it all starts for artists like me, is just common sense," the star has commented.
The musician is among several artists to donate his honor prize money to good deeds.
When Pulp earned the prize in 1996 for their record the album, vocalist Jarvis Cocker announced that the band would contribute their cash to the non-profit War Child.
That year, rapper and singer the artist split her prize across multiple good causes, including the NSPCC and a Sickle Cell charity.
"And I gave a £1,000 to my local community centre, to their classes, because I did gymnastics when I was a child and they lacked updated gear," she explained to outlets.
Two years ago, they donated their prize money to the local youth club that developed their act, as well as other grassroots music organisations.
Also winners that year the group contributed their winnings to a MS organization after a close contact was found to have the disease.
"The victory was sufficient," said vocalist Small. "The money was the bonus but we didn't need the extra, because we had the main prize. So our winning affected somebody else's life."
Last week, the Music Venues Trust announced it had rescued two local spots in south-east England, by bringing them into public stewardship.
One venue in the city and the second in the city were acquired under the public acquisition initiative, which is supported by Arts Council England and music fans who buy "stakes" in the venues.
