The star has handed over the entirety of his £25,000 award prize money to the MVT, which functions to save the United Kingdom's small concert spaces.
The star was presented with the cheque on mid-October as his third album the album was chosen as the top album of the past year.
The musician has chosen to give the cash to the Music Venues Trust, in appreciation of the vital role small stages played in his early career.
"I would not have achieved this success if it hadn't been for all the performances I performed around the region, and beyond, when I was just getting going," remarked Sam Fender. "These locations are legendary, but they are in difficulty."
Beginning in 2023, at least 150 of these venues have ceased operations – approximately 16% of the entire UK sector.
In the last year, major artists such as Pulp, Coldplay, Katy Perry and Sheeran have all backed the MVT in its attempts to help venues survive, by applying a minor surcharge to their admission fees, which supports local stages.
He also participated, generating in excess of £100,000 on his recent tour to support numerous grassroots venues across England, Scotland, and Wales.
These funds supported venues that were confronting potential shutdown due to challenges arising from floods, fire incidents and family tragedies, as well as permit problems, court cases and sound issues.
Some locations were granted funding support in upgrading amenities and sound and lighting systems that helped artists and fans.
"The concept that funds from concerts in large arenas helps the smaller venues, where it begins for musicians like me, is just logical," the star has said.
He is among several artists to give his honor funds to charitable organizations.
In the band received the award in the mid-90s for their release their work, frontman the singer announced that the act would donate their prize money to the non-profit the charity.
That year, artist Ms Dynamite split her prize across a few charities, including the NSPCC and a Sickle Cell organization.
"And I donated a grand to my local community centre, to their gymnastics class, because I trained in gymnastics when I was younger and they needed better apparatus," she shared with the media.
In recent years, the band gave their prize money to the youth organization that developed their group, alongside other grassroots music organisations.
Also winners that year the group gave their prize to a MS organization after a friend was found to have the disease.
"Receiving the award was ample," remarked vocalist the singer. "The money was the extra but we could do without the bonus, because we had the main prize. So our success impacted somebody else's life."
In the past week, the MVT revealed it had saved several grassroots venues in the South East, by transferring them to community ownership.
The Joiners in Southampton and the second in the city were bought under the community ownership initiative, which is supported by the arts council and music fans who buy "stakes" in the properties.
