The star has given the complete sum of his £25k Mercury Prize winnings to the Music Venues Trust, which works to save the Britain's small music venues.
The star was given the cheque on October 16 as his latest record his work was declared the best record of the past year.
Fender has decided to hand the money over to the MVT, in recognition of the vital role grassroots venues fulfilled in his beginning days.
"As an artist couldn't be pursuing what I am doing today if it weren't for all the shows I performed around the region, and beyond, when I was starting out," remarked Fender. "These locations are legendary, but they are struggling."
Beginning in 2023, more than 150 of these spaces have ceased operations – about 16 percent of the entire UK sector.
In the last year, well-known musicians including Pulp, Coldplay, Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all supported the MVT in its attempts to help venues survive, by including a modest fee to their ticket prices, which supports smaller concert halls.
Sam Fender also took part, generating in excess of £100,000 on his recent tour to help numerous small stages across England, Scotland, and Wales.
These funds helped locations that were dealing with possible closure due to difficulties caused by flooding, fire incidents and bereavements, as well as permit problems, conflicts and sound issues.
Some locations received financial assistance in upgrading infrastructure and gear that directly benefitted musicians and fans.
"The notion that money from concerts in major spaces supports the local stages, where it all starts for artists like me, is just common sense," Fender has commented.
The musician is far from the only musician to contribute his Mercury Prize winnings to good deeds.
When they received the trophy in the year 1996 for their record their work, lead singer the singer stated that the act would contribute their winnings to the charity War Child.
In 2002, artist she divided her bounty between several charities, such as the NSPCC and a charity for Sickle Cell.
"Additionally, I donated a thousand pounds to the center, to their classes, because I did gymnastics when I was growing up and they needed new equipment," Ms Dynamite explained to the media.
In recent years, Ezra Collective donated their funds to the local youth club that developed their group, as well as other grassroots music organisations.
Additionally winners that year the group donated their prize to a charity for MS after a acquaintance was identified with the illness.
"Receiving the award was quite enough," said singer Heather Small. "The money was the bonus but we didn't require the bonus, because we had the cake. So our winning impacted another person's life."
Last week, the MVT shared it had protected several small stages in south-east England, by bringing them into community ownership.
One venue in Southampton and the second in the city were bought under the community ownership initiative, which is backed by a national body and music fans who purchase "stakes" in the venues.
