The star has donated the complete sum of his £25,000 Mercury Prize prize money to the MVT, which operates to preserve the Britain's independent concert spaces.
The star was given the cheque on 16 October as his new release his work was named the outstanding release of the previous year.
The musician has opted to give the cash to the trust, in appreciation of the essential function local spots had in his early career.
"I personally would not have achieved my current career if it wasn't for all the gigs I performed around the North East, and beyond, when I was starting out," stated Sam Fender. "These spaces are renowned, but they are facing challenges."
From early 2023 onward, at least 150 of these venues have ceased operations – roughly 16% of the whole industry in the UK.
In the last year, major artists like Pulp, Coldplay, Katy Perry and Sheeran have all aided the Music Venues Trust in its initiatives to support the industry, by adding a small levy to their ticket prices, which supports smaller concert halls.
Sam Fender also joined in, collecting in excess of £100,000 on his 2024 arena tour to help numerous small stages across England, Scotland, and Wales.
These funds supported locations that were dealing with possible closure due to issues caused by water damage, blazes and personal losses, as well as regulatory hurdles, legal disputes and neighbor objections.
Additional spaces obtained financial assistance in modernizing facilities and gear that helped artists and audiences.
"The idea that funds from performances in large arenas supports the independent spots, where it all starts for artists like me, is just sensible," Fender has said.
The musician is not the first artist to give his honor winnings to charitable organizations.
When Pulp won the trophy in 1996 for their release their work, lead singer Jarvis Cocker announced that the band would contribute their winnings to the organization the charity.
In 2002, artist Ms Dynamite shared her bounty among a few charities, including the children's charity and a Sickle Cell organization.
"Additionally, I donated a £1,000 to Highgate Newtown, to their classes, because I trained in gymnastics when I was growing up and they needed new equipment," Ms Dynamite explained to the media.
Previously, the band contributed their prize money to the youth organization that developed their band, as well as other independent music bodies.
Additionally winners that year the group contributed their award to a multiple sclerosis charity after a friend was identified with the illness.
"Receiving the award was quite enough," said artist Small. "The cash was the bonus but we didn't require the extra, because we had the main prize. So our winning touched the lives of others."
Last week, the Music Venues Trust announced it had rescued several grassroots venues in the South East, by placing them under public stewardship.
One venue in Southampton and the second in the city were bought under the public acquisition initiative, which is supported by the arts council and enthusiasts who purchase "stakes" in the properties.
