The star has given the complete sum of his £25,000 award prize money to the MVT, which works to protect the Britain's grassroots live music spots.
The star was presented with the award on mid-October as his latest record the album was named the best record of the last 12 months.
Fender has decided to give the cash to the MVT, in recognition of the crucial part small stages had in his beginning days.
"I would not have achieved this success if it weren't for all the shows I played around the North East, and beyond, when I was starting out," remarked Sam Fender. "These spaces are legendary, but they are struggling."
Beginning in 2023, over 150 of these locations have shut down – approximately 16 percent of the whole industry in the UK.
Over the past year, major artists like the band Pulp, Coldplay, the singer Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all supported the Music Venues Trust in its initiatives to support the industry, by including a minor surcharge to their admission fees, which benefits local stages.
Fender also took part, collecting over £100k on his 2024 arena tour to assist numerous small stages across Britain.
The donation supported spaces that were confronting imminent closure due to issues stemming from water damage, fires and family tragedies, as well as regulatory hurdles, legal disputes and noise complaints.
Some locations received monetary aid in improving facilities and technical equipment that directly benefitted performers and concertgoers.
"The concept that funds from performances in big venues helps the smaller venues, where it kicks off for artists like me, is just logical," Sam Fender has stated.
He is not the first artist to donate his honor prize money to good deeds.
When the band won the prize in the year 1996 for their album their work, lead singer Cocker declared that the group would contribute their cash to the organization the charity.
In 2002, musician Ms Dynamite split her prize across multiple good causes, including the NSPCC and a charity for Sickle Cell.
"I also contributed a grand to the center, to their classes, because I trained in gymnastics when I was a child and they lacked new equipment," the artist shared with a publication.
Two years ago, they donated their prize money to the youth organization that supported their group, as well as other independent music bodies.
And 1994 winners they donated their winnings to a MS organization after a friend was diagnosed the disease.
"The victory was sufficient," said singer the singer. "The prize was the bonus but we could do without the bonus, because we had the cake. So our winning affected another person's life."
Last week, the Music Venues Trust announced it had saved a couple of small stages in that region, by placing them under local control.
The first in that area and the second in the city were acquired under the Own Our Venues program, which is backed by Arts Council England and music fans who purchase "stakes" in the buildings.
