The star has donated the complete sum of his £25,000 award winnings to the Music Venues Trust, which operates to save the Britain's independent concert spaces.
Fender was presented with the award on 16 October as his third album the album was declared the outstanding release of the previous year.
Fender has opted to hand the money over to the Music Venues Trust, in appreciation of the essential function small stages had in his early career.
"As an artist would not have achieved this success if it wasn't for all the performances I did around the region, and elsewhere, when I was beginning," stated Sam Fender. "These spaces are legendary, but they are struggling."
Beginning in 2023, over 150 of these venues have ceased operations – approximately one-sixth of the total UK scene.
Over the past year, top acts including the band Pulp, Coldplay, Katy Perry and Sheeran have all aided the trust in its initiatives to keep the scene afloat, by including a small levy to their ticket costs, which supports local stages.
Fender also participated, collecting in excess of £100,000 on his live tour to support 38 small stages across England, Scotland, and Wales.
The money helped spaces that were confronting imminent closure due to issues caused by floods, blazes and bereavements, as well as regulatory hurdles, legal disputes and noise complaints.
Other venues received financial assistance in improving amenities and technical equipment that positively impacted musicians and audiences.
"The concept that revenue from performances in major spaces supports the smaller venues, where it all starts for musicians like me, is just logical," the star has said.
The musician is among several artists to give his award funds to good deeds.
Back when they earned the trophy in the year 1996 for their record the album, frontman Jarvis Cocker stated that the group would donate their cash to the organization the charity.
That year, artist she shared her bounty across multiple organizations, including the NSPCC and a charity for Sickle Cell.
"Additionally, I gave a £1,000 to Highgate Newtown, to their gymnastics class, because I did gymnastics when I was growing up and they required new equipment," Ms Dynamite told outlets.
In recent years, Ezra Collective contributed their prize money to the community center that developed their band, alongside other independent music bodies.
And 1994 winners M People donated their award to a multiple sclerosis charity after a acquaintance was found to have the illness.
"Winning was sufficient," stated singer Heather Small. "The prize was the cherry on top but we could do without the extra, because we had the cake. So our success impacted another person's life."
Last week, the MVT revealed it had protected a couple of grassroots venues in that region, by transferring them to public stewardship.
The Joiners in that area and The Croft in Bristol were bought under the community ownership initiative, which is funded by the arts council and enthusiasts who purchase "ownership units" in the properties.
