The star has handed over the complete sum of his £25,000 honor cash to the MVT, which operates to protect the United Kingdom's small concert spaces.
He was awarded the prize on mid-October as his latest record the album was declared the top album of the last 12 months.
Fender has chosen to hand the money over to the trust, in recognition of the crucial part grassroots venues fulfilled in his initial steps.
"I would not have achieved my current career if it wasn't for all the performances I performed around the North East, and beyond, when I was just getting going," said the artist. "These venues are iconic, but they are in difficulty."
Beginning in 2023, at least 150 of these locations have ceased operations – approximately 16% of the total UK scene.
Recently, top acts like the band Pulp, Coldplay, the singer Katy Perry and Sheeran have all aided the trust in its attempts to keep the scene afloat, by including a modest fee to their ticket prices, which supports independent venues.
Fender also took part, generating in excess of £100,000 on his recent tour to help thirty-eight small stages across the UK.
These funds supported locations that were facing imminent closure due to challenges arising from flooding, fires and family tragedies, as well as permit problems, court cases and sound issues.
Some locations obtained financial assistance in upgrading facilities and sound and lighting systems that helped performers and audiences.
"The idea that funds from performances in large arenas supports the independent spots, where it begins for musicians like me, is just common sense," the star has said.
He is not the first artist to give his honor winnings to worthy causes.
When Pulp earned the award in the mid-90s for their album Different Class, vocalist the singer declared that the act would contribute their cash to the organization the charity.
In 2002, musician she divided her prize across several charities, like the NSPCC and a Sickle Cell organization.
"And I donated a thousand pounds to the center, to their gymnastics class, because I trained in gymnastics when I was younger and they needed updated gear," she told the media.
Two years ago, they donated their winnings to the youth organization that nurtured their act, in addition to other grassroots music organisations.
Also winners that year the group gave their award to a MS organization after a friend was identified with the condition.
"Receiving the award was sufficient," remarked vocalist Heather Small. "The prize was the extra but we didn't require the bonus, because we had the main prize. So our victory touched the lives of others."
Recently, the trust announced it had rescued two local spots in south-east England, by bringing them into public stewardship.
One venue in the city and the second in the city were bought under the public acquisition initiative, which is supported by a national body and music fans who buy "stakes" in the properties.
