The artist has given the full amount of his £25k award cash to the trust for venues, which works to protect the UK's small concert spaces.
He was presented with the prize on 16 October as his third album the album was declared the top album of the previous year.
Fender has opted to hand the money over to the MVT, in appreciation of the crucial part small stages played in his initial steps.
"As an artist would not have achieved this success if it hadn't been for all the shows I performed around the region, and further afield, when I was just getting going," stated the artist. "These spaces are iconic, but they are struggling."
Beginning in 2023, at least 150 of these venues have ceased operations – approximately one-sixth of the total UK scene.
In the last year, top acts including Pulp, Coldplay, Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all aided the MVT in its initiatives to support the industry, by including a modest fee to their ticket prices, which goes to help smaller concert halls.
Sam Fender also participated, collecting more than £100,000 on his recent tour to support 38 local spots across Britain.
These funds supported locations that were dealing with possible closure due to challenges caused by water damage, fires and bereavements, as well as licensing issues, legal disputes and neighbor objections.
Additional spaces were granted financial assistance in modernizing amenities and sound and lighting systems that directly benefitted musicians and fans.
"The concept that revenue from concerts in big venues backs the independent spots, where it all starts for performers like me, is just common sense," Fender has said.
Fender is far from the only musician to give his honor funds to worthy causes.
Back when Pulp received the award in the year 1996 for their record Different Class, frontman Cocker stated that the band would contribute their cash to the non-profit War Child.
That year, rapper and singer the artist shared her bounty between a few organizations, like the children's charity and a Sickle Cell organization.
"Additionally, I gave a thousand pounds to my local community centre, to their gymnastics class, because I practiced gymnastics when I was a child and they required new equipment," the artist explained to a publication.
Two years ago, they contributed their funds to the local youth club that nurtured their act, as well as other local music groups.
Also winners that year they contributed their winnings to a charity for MS after a acquaintance was diagnosed the illness.
"Receiving the award was ample," remarked vocalist Heather Small. "The prize was the cherry on top but we didn't require the cherry, because we had the cake. So our winning touched somebody else's life."
In the past week, the Music Venues Trust shared it had rescued a couple of small stages in that region, by bringing them into public stewardship.
One venue in that area and the other in that location were bought under the public acquisition program, which is backed by Arts Council England and enthusiasts who purchase "stakes" in the properties.
