The star has handed over the full amount of his £25k honor cash to the trust for venues, which operates to protect the Britain's grassroots live music spots.
Fender was presented with the cheque on October 16 as his new release his work was chosen as the outstanding release of the last 12 months.
The musician has chosen to hand the money over to the MVT, in recognition of the vital role small stages played in his beginning days.
"I would not have achieved this success if it hadn't been for all the shows I did around the area, and further afield, when I was just getting going," said the artist. "These spaces are legendary, but they are facing challenges."
Beginning in 2023, more than 150 of these locations have permanently closed – about 16 percent of the total UK scene.
In the last year, well-known musicians such as the band Pulp, the group Coldplay, Katy Perry and Sheeran have all backed the Music Venues Trust in its efforts to help venues survive, by adding a modest fee to their admission fees, which goes to help local stages.
Sam Fender also participated, collecting in excess of £100,000 on his live tour to assist thirty-eight grassroots venues across the UK.
The money helped venues that were dealing with potential shutdown due to challenges arising from flooding, fires and bereavements, as well as licensing issues, court cases and sound issues.
Some locations received monetary aid in modernizing infrastructure and sound and lighting systems that helped performers and fans.
"The idea that funds from performances in major spaces helps the smaller venues, where it begins for artists like me, is just sensible," the star has said.
Fender is not the first artist to give his honor prize money to good deeds.
Back when they earned the trophy in the year 1996 for their record their work, lead singer Jarvis Cocker declared that the act would give their prize money to the charity War Child.
In 2002, artist the artist shared her prize between several good causes, such as the NSPCC and a Sickle Cell organization.
"Additionally, I contributed a thousand pounds to my local community centre, to their gymnastics class, because I practiced gymnastics when I was younger and they required new equipment," she shared with the media.
Two years ago, they gave their prize money to the youth organization that developed their act, alongside other independent music bodies.
Also the 1994 recipients the group contributed their award to a charity for MS after a friend was found to have the illness.
"The victory was sufficient," stated vocalist Heather Small. "The cash was the cherry on top but we didn't need the cherry, because we had the main prize. So our success touched the lives of others."
Last week, the trust shared it had saved a couple of local spots in that region, by bringing them into public stewardship.
One venue in Southampton and the other in Bristol were bought under the Own Our Venues initiative, which is funded by the arts council and supporters who acquire "stakes" in the buildings.
