The artist has donated the full amount of his £25,000 award prize money to the MVT, which works to preserve the United Kingdom's independent music venues.
The star was awarded the prize on October 16 as his new release People Watching was chosen as the best record of the past year.
He has decided to hand the money over to the trust, in appreciation of the crucial part local spots had in his early career.
"I wouldn't be doing my current career if it wasn't for all the gigs I performed around the area, and further afield, when I was just getting going," said Sam Fender. "These locations are renowned, but they are facing challenges."
Beginning in 2023, at least 150 of these locations have permanently closed – about 16 percent of the whole industry in the UK.
In the last year, top acts like the band Pulp, Coldplay, Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all supported the trust in its attempts to keep the scene afloat, by adding a small levy to their ticket prices, which goes to help smaller concert halls.
Sam Fender also participated, generating more than £100,000 on his recent tour to assist thirty-eight small stages across Britain.
These funds supported locations that were facing possible closure due to challenges stemming from floods, blazes and family tragedies, as well as licensing issues, conflicts and noise complaints.
Other venues obtained funding support in upgrading facilities and technical equipment that directly benefitted performers and audiences.
"The concept that funds from shows in big venues backs the smaller venues, where it begins for performers like me, is just sensible," the star has said.
The musician is among several artists to contribute his honor funds to charitable organizations.
In they earned the prize in the year 1996 for their record Different Class, vocalist Cocker declared that the act would contribute their prize money to the charity War Child.
During 2002, artist Ms Dynamite shared her award among multiple good causes, such as the children's charity and a Sickle Cell charity.
"And I gave a thousand pounds to Highgate Newtown, to their gymnastics program, because I trained in gymnastics when I was younger and they needed updated gear," the artist shared with outlets.
Previously, they gave their funds to the local youth club that supported their band, alongside other local music groups.
Also the 1994 recipients M People donated their winnings to a multiple sclerosis charity after a close contact was found to have the illness.
"The victory was quite enough," stated artist Heather Small. "The prize was the cherry on top but we didn't need the cherry, because we had the honor. So our winning touched somebody else's life."
Last week, the MVT shared it had rescued two grassroots venues in the South East, by placing them under community ownership.
The first in Southampton and The Croft in Bristol were bought under the community ownership initiative, which is backed by a national body and enthusiasts who acquire "stakes" in the buildings.
