The artist has given the full amount of his twenty-five thousand pound Mercury Prize cash to the trust for venues, which functions to save the Britain's small live music spots.
The star was given the cheque on mid-October as his latest record the album was named the top album of the previous year.
The musician has decided to hand the money over to the Music Venues Trust, in recognition of the vital role small stages had in his early career.
"I couldn't be pursuing my current career if it hadn't been for all the shows I played around the North East, and elsewhere, when I was starting out," remarked Sam Fender. "These venues are iconic, but they are in difficulty."
Since the start of 2023, over 150 of these spaces have permanently closed – roughly one-sixth of the whole industry in the UK.
In the last year, well-known musicians like the band Pulp, the group Coldplay, the singer Katy Perry and Sheeran have all supported the MVT in its initiatives to help venues survive, by including a minor surcharge to their ticket costs, which supports smaller concert halls.
Sam Fender also took part, collecting over £100k on his recent tour to support numerous grassroots venues across England, Scotland, and Wales.
The donation assisted venues that were facing potential shutdown due to difficulties stemming from flooding, fires and family tragedies, as well as regulatory hurdles, legal disputes and sound issues.
Some locations were granted funding support in modernizing amenities and sound and lighting systems that helped artists and audiences.
"The notion that money from concerts in large arenas helps the local stages, where it begins for performers like me, is just common sense," the star has said.
The musician is far from the only musician to donate his honor funds to good deeds.
When they won the award in the mid-90s for their record their work, frontman the singer declared that the band would give their cash to the non-profit the charity.
In 2002, rapper and singer she divided her bounty between several organizations, including the children's charity and a Sickle Cell organization.
"I also contributed a grand to my local community centre, to their gymnastics program, because I trained in gymnastics when I was younger and they required updated gear," Ms Dynamite explained to the media.
Previously, the band donated their prize money to the community center that developed their band, as well as other independent music bodies.
Also the 1994 recipients M People contributed their winnings to a MS organization after a close contact was found to have the disease.
"Winning was quite enough," said vocalist Heather Small. "The prize was the extra but we didn't need the extra, because we had the cake. So our victory affected the lives of others."
Last week, the MVT shared it had rescued a couple of local spots in that region, by bringing them into local control.
The Joiners in that area and the second in that location were bought under the community ownership scheme, which is backed by the arts council and enthusiasts who buy "stakes" in the buildings.
