The star has handed over the full amount of his £25k award prize money to the MVT, which functions to preserve the UK's independent concert spaces.
The star was awarded the cheque on 16 October as his third album the album was chosen as the top album of the past year.
He has chosen to donate the funds to the Music Venues Trust, in recognition of the essential function local spots had in his initial steps.
"I personally would not have achieved what I am doing today if it hadn't been for all the performances I did around the area, and further afield, when I was just getting going," said Fender. "These venues are renowned, but they are struggling."
Since the start of 2023, more than 150 of these spaces have shut down – approximately 16 percent of the whole industry in the UK.
In the last year, major artists including the band Pulp, Coldplay, Katy Perry and Sheeran have all aided the trust in its attempts to keep the scene afloat, by including a minor surcharge to their admission fees, which goes to help independent venues.
Fender also participated, collecting over £100k on his recent tour to support thirty-eight local spots across England, Scotland, and Wales.
The money helped venues that were dealing with potential shutdown due to issues caused by water damage, blazes and personal losses, as well as regulatory hurdles, court cases and noise complaints.
Some locations obtained financial assistance in modernizing facilities and gear that directly benefitted artists and fans.
"The notion that revenue from performances in major spaces helps the independent spots, where it kicks off for artists like me, is just common sense," Sam Fender has stated.
Fender is not the first artist to donate his honor funds to good deeds.
Back when the band won the prize in the year 1996 for their release their work, lead singer the singer stated that the act would give their prize money to the non-profit War Child.

"And I contributed a thousand pounds to my local community centre, to their gymnastics class, because I did gymnastics when I was a child and they required new equipment," Ms Dynamite told a publication.
In recent years, the band contributed their prize money to the youth organization that nurtured their act, alongside other grassroots music organisations.
Additionally winners that year the group contributed their award to a charity for MS after a acquaintance was found to have the condition.
"Receiving the award was ample," remarked vocalist Small. "The prize was the cherry on top but we didn't require the cherry, because we had the main prize. So our winning touched the lives of others."
Last week, the MVT shared it had protected two local spots in the South East, by transferring them to community ownership.
The first in that area and the second in the city were acquired under the public acquisition initiative, which is funded by Arts Council England and music fans who acquire "ownership units" in the buildings.
