The star has donated the entirety of his £25,000 Mercury Prize prize money to the MVT, which functions to protect the Britain's grassroots music venues.
The star was awarded the cheque on 16 October as his third album his work was named the outstanding release of the last 12 months.
He has opted to donate the funds to the Music Venues Trust, in appreciation of the crucial part local spots had in his initial steps.
"I would not have achieved this success if it weren't for all the performances I did around the North East, and elsewhere, when I was just getting going," said Sam Fender. "These spaces are renowned, but they are struggling."
Since the start of 2023, over 150 of these spaces have ceased operations – approximately 16 percent of the whole industry in the UK.
Recently, well-known musicians including Pulp, Coldplay, Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all backed the MVT in its initiatives to help venues survive, by adding a modest fee to their admission fees, which supports local stages.
Sam Fender also participated, generating in excess of £100,000 on his live tour to assist thirty-eight local spots across the UK.
The donation supported locations that were confronting imminent closure due to issues arising from floods, fire incidents and personal losses, as well as licensing issues, conflicts and noise complaints.
Additional spaces obtained funding support in modernizing facilities and gear that positively impacted musicians and concertgoers.
"The idea that revenue from shows in big venues supports the independent spots, where it begins for artists like me, is just sensible," the star has stated.
Fender is far from the only musician to give his Mercury Prize funds to worthy causes.
When the band won the award in the year 1996 for their record the album, lead singer Jarvis Cocker announced that the band would donate their prize money to the organization the charity.
In 2002, musician Ms Dynamite shared her prize among several good causes, like the NSPCC and a Sickle Cell charity.
"I also gave a £1,000 to Highgate Newtown, to their classes, because I did gymnastics when I was a child and they needed better apparatus," Ms Dynamite shared with a publication.
In recent years, they donated their funds to the local youth club that supported their act, as well as other independent music bodies.
Also 1994 winners they donated their award to a charity for MS after a acquaintance was diagnosed the illness.
"The victory was ample," said artist Small. "The cash was the extra but we didn't need the extra, because we had the cake. So our winning affected somebody else's life."
Last week, the trust revealed it had saved a couple of local spots in the South East, by placing them under public stewardship.
The Joiners in the city and The Croft in that location were acquired under the public acquisition program, which is supported by Arts Council England and music fans who buy "shares" in the venues.
