The star has given the full amount of his £25k Mercury Prize prize money to the MVT, which operates to protect the UK's small concert spaces.
He was awarded the prize on 16 October as his third album his work was declared the top album of the previous year.
Fender has chosen to give the cash to the trust, in recognition of the crucial part small stages fulfilled in his early career.
"As an artist wouldn't be doing what I am doing today if it weren't for all the shows I played around the North East, and further afield, when I was starting out," remarked the artist. "These locations are renowned, 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, top acts such as Pulp, the group Coldplay, Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all supported the Music Venues Trust in its attempts to help venues survive, by applying a modest fee to their admission fees, which supports local stages.
Sam Fender also participated, generating in excess of £100,000 on his 2024 arena tour to assist thirty-eight local spots across Britain.
The donation assisted venues that were confronting possible closure due to challenges arising from floods, fire incidents and personal losses, as well as licensing issues, court cases and neighbor objections.
Additional spaces obtained financial assistance in modernizing amenities and sound and lighting systems that directly benefitted musicians and fans.
"The concept that revenue from shows in big venues supports the independent spots, where it kicks off for musicians like me, is just logical," Sam Fender has commented.
The musician is among several artists to donate his award funds to charitable organizations.
In the band earned the award in 1996 for their album their work, lead singer Cocker announced that the act would contribute their winnings to the organization the charity.
During 2002, musician the artist divided her bounty among a few good causes, like the NSPCC and a Sickle Cell organization.
"Additionally, I gave a thousand pounds to Highgate Newtown, to their gymnastics class, because I did gymnastics when I was growing up and they required new equipment," she told a publication.
Previously, the band contributed their winnings to the community center that supported their act, alongside other local music groups.
Additionally 1994 winners they contributed their winnings to a charity for MS after a close contact was diagnosed the condition.
"Winning was ample," remarked artist Heather Small. "The money was the extra but we didn't need the bonus, because we had the main prize. So our winning affected the lives of others."
Last week, the Music Venues Trust announced it had saved two small stages in the South East, by transferring them to local control.
The first in Southampton and The Croft in the city were bought under the community ownership scheme, which is supported by a national body and supporters who buy "shares" in the buildings.
