The star has given the complete sum of his £25,000 honor winnings to the Music Venues Trust, which works to save the UK's grassroots live music spots.
He was given the award on mid-October as his new release his work was named the top album of the previous year.
He has opted to give the cash to the trust, in recognition of the essential function grassroots venues fulfilled in his beginning days.
"I wouldn't be doing this success if it weren't for all the gigs I did around the region, and elsewhere, when I was beginning," said Sam Fender. "These locations are iconic, but they are in difficulty."
Beginning in 2023, over 150 of these venues have permanently closed – roughly 16 percent of the entire UK sector.
Over the past year, top acts including the band Pulp, the group Coldplay, the singer Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all aided the Music Venues Trust in its initiatives to help venues survive, by applying a small levy to their admission fees, which goes to help local stages.
He also took part, collecting more than £100,000 on his recent tour to support numerous local spots across England, Scotland, and Wales.
The donation helped venues that were facing possible closure due to difficulties stemming from water damage, fire incidents and family tragedies, as well as regulatory hurdles, court cases and neighbor objections.
Some locations received funding support in modernizing infrastructure and technical equipment that positively impacted musicians and audiences.
"The idea that funds from performances in major spaces helps the independent spots, where it begins for performers like me, is just sensible," the star has commented.
Fender is not the first artist to give his honor winnings to good deeds.
In Pulp won the award in the year 1996 for their release their work, vocalist Jarvis Cocker stated that the act would contribute their cash to the non-profit the charity.
That year, artist the artist shared her award between a few charities, such as the children's charity and a Sickle Cell charity.
"I also contributed a thousand pounds to my local community centre, to their classes, because I trained in gymnastics when I was younger and they required better apparatus," Ms Dynamite explained to outlets.
Two years ago, they gave their winnings to the community center that nurtured their band, as well as other independent music bodies.
Additionally winners that year they contributed their winnings to a charity for MS after a acquaintance was identified with the disease.
"The victory was ample," remarked vocalist Small. "The cash was the extra but we could do without the extra, because we had the main prize. So our victory affected the lives of others."
Recently, the MVT announced it had saved two local spots in the South East, by transferring them to community ownership.
One venue in the city and the other in the city were acquired under the Own Our Venues program, which is backed by a national body and music fans who acquire "stakes" in the venues.
