The star has given the full amount of his £25,000 Mercury Prize cash to the trust for venues, which works to save the United Kingdom's small music venues.
The star was awarded the award on October 16 as his new release People Watching was chosen as the top album of the previous year.
Fender has opted to donate the funds to the trust, in recognition of the essential function local spots played in his beginning days.
"I personally couldn't be pursuing this success if it wasn't for all the performances I performed around the region, and elsewhere, when I was beginning," stated Sam Fender. "These spaces are renowned, but they are in difficulty."
Beginning in 2023, at least 150 of these venues have permanently closed – about one-sixth of the whole industry in the UK.
Over the past year, top acts such as Pulp, Coldplay, Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all supported the trust in its efforts to support the industry, by applying a minor surcharge to their ticket costs, which supports local stages.
He also joined in, raising more than £100,000 on his live tour to support thirty-eight small stages across the UK.
The donation supported locations that were confronting imminent closure due to difficulties caused by floods, fires and family tragedies, as well as regulatory hurdles, conflicts and noise complaints.
Other venues were granted funding support in modernizing infrastructure and gear that directly benefitted musicians and audiences.
"The notion that money from concerts in major spaces backs the smaller venues, where it begins for artists like me, is just common sense," Fender has commented.
Fender is among several artists to give his award winnings to worthy causes.
When the band won the trophy in 1996 for their album their work, lead singer the singer announced that the group would contribute their winnings to the non-profit War Child.
During 2002, musician she split her prize between a few good causes, including the NSPCC and a Sickle Cell organization.
"And I donated a £1,000 to Highgate Newtown, to their gymnastics program, because I trained in gymnastics when I was a child and they lacked new equipment," Ms Dynamite shared with outlets.
In recent years, Ezra Collective contributed their winnings to the youth organization that supported their act, in addition to other local music groups.
Also the 1994 recipients the group gave their award to a charity for MS after a acquaintance was diagnosed the disease.
"The victory was quite enough," remarked vocalist the singer. "The prize was the bonus but we didn't require the extra, because we had the cake. So our winning affected another person's life."
Recently, the MVT shared it had saved a couple of small stages in south-east England, by bringing them into public stewardship.
The Joiners in Southampton and the second in the city were bought under the Own Our Venues scheme, which is funded by Arts Council England and supporters who acquire "shares" in the buildings.
