The star has handed over the full amount of his £25k award prize money to the MVT, which works to protect the UK's small music venues.
The star was given the prize on October 16 as his third album his work was named the best record of the past year.
Fender has chosen to give the cash to the MVT, in acknowledgment of the essential function grassroots venues fulfilled in his initial steps.
"I personally wouldn't be doing my current career if it hadn't been for all the gigs I performed around the North East, and beyond, when I was beginning," remarked the artist. "These spaces are renowned, but they are struggling."
From early 2023 onward, at least 150 of these venues have shut down – about 16% of the entire UK sector.
Recently, top acts including Pulp, Coldplay, the singer Katy Perry and Sheeran have all backed the Music Venues Trust in its efforts to support the industry, by adding a small levy to their ticket prices, which benefits local stages.
He also participated, raising more than £100,000 on his live tour to assist thirty-eight small stages across the UK.
The money assisted locations that were facing imminent closure due to difficulties stemming from floods, fires and personal losses, as well as licensing issues, conflicts and sound issues.
Additional spaces were granted financial assistance in upgrading infrastructure and sound and lighting systems that helped performers and audiences.
"The notion that money from shows in major spaces helps the smaller venues, where it all starts for musicians like me, is just common sense," Fender has commented.
Fender is among several artists to contribute his award winnings to good deeds.
When Pulp received the prize in the year 1996 for their release the album, frontman Cocker declared that the act would contribute their cash to the non-profit the charity.
In 2002, musician the artist divided her award between several good causes, such as the children's charity and a charity for Sickle Cell.
"Additionally, I donated a thousand pounds to the center, to their classes, because I practiced gymnastics when I was a child and they lacked new equipment," the artist explained to a publication.
Two years ago, the band gave their funds to the youth organization that developed their group, alongside other local music groups.
Also winners that year they contributed their award to a multiple sclerosis charity after a close contact was diagnosed the disease.
"Receiving the award was quite enough," remarked artist Small. "The cash was the cherry on top but we could do without the extra, because we had the cake. So our victory affected another person's life."
Last week, the MVT revealed it had saved a couple of small stages in south-east England, by transferring them to local control.
The first in that area and The Croft in the city were bought under the public acquisition initiative, which is backed by a national body and supporters who acquire "ownership units" in the venues.
