The artist has given the full amount of his £25k award cash to the trust for venues, which works to protect the Britain's independent music venues.
The star was given the cheque on 16 October as his third album the album was chosen as the outstanding release of the last 12 months.
The musician has chosen to donate the funds to the MVT, in appreciation of the crucial part small stages played in his early career.
"I wouldn't be doing what I am doing today if it wasn't for all the shows I played around the area, and beyond, when I was starting out," said Fender. "These spaces are iconic, but they are struggling."
From early 2023 onward, at least 150 of these locations have shut down – approximately 16% of the total UK scene.
In the last year, top acts including Pulp, Coldplay, the singer Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all aided the trust in its initiatives to keep the scene afloat, by adding a minor surcharge to their admission fees, which supports independent venues.
Fender also joined in, collecting over £100k on his live tour to assist numerous local spots across the UK.
These funds assisted locations that were dealing with potential shutdown due to challenges arising from water damage, fires and bereavements, as well as permit problems, court cases and neighbor objections.
Some locations obtained financial assistance in modernizing amenities and gear that directly benefitted musicians and concertgoers.
"The idea that revenue from concerts in big venues helps the smaller venues, where it all starts for performers like me, is just common sense," Sam Fender has said.
The musician is far from the only musician to give his honor funds to charitable organizations.
In they received the trophy in 1996 for their album their work, lead singer Cocker stated that the act would contribute their cash to the charity War Child.
That year, rapper and singer Ms Dynamite divided her bounty among a few charities, including the children's charity and a charity for Sickle Cell.
"Additionally, I donated a £1,000 to the center, to their gymnastics program, because I practiced gymnastics when I was a child and they lacked new equipment," she told the media.
Two years ago, they donated their winnings to the community center that developed their group, as well as other independent music bodies.
Also 1994 winners M People contributed their winnings to a charity for MS after a acquaintance was found to have the illness.
"The victory was ample," remarked artist Heather Small. "The prize was the bonus but we didn't require the extra, because we had the cake. So our winning impacted the lives of others."
Recently, the Music Venues Trust shared it had rescued several local spots in south-east England, by transferring them to community ownership.
The Joiners in that area and the other in Bristol were acquired under the public acquisition scheme, which is backed by the arts council and music fans who buy "shares" in the venues.
