The star has donated the full amount of his twenty-five thousand pound honor winnings to the MVT, which functions to save the UK's grassroots concert spaces.
He was given the prize on October 16 as his third album the album was declared the outstanding release of the past year.
He has decided to give the cash to the trust, in acknowledgment of the essential function small stages had in his early career.
"I wouldn't be doing my current career if it wasn't for all the performances I performed around the area, and beyond, when I was beginning," said Fender. "These spaces are iconic, but they are struggling."
Beginning in 2023, more than 150 of these locations have permanently closed – about 16% of the whole industry in the UK.
Over the past year, well-known musicians like the band Pulp, the group Coldplay, Katy Perry and Sheeran have all backed the trust in its efforts to support the industry, by including a minor surcharge to their ticket prices, which benefits independent venues.
Fender also participated, collecting more than £100,000 on his live tour to support 38 grassroots venues across the UK.
The money helped spaces that were facing possible closure due to difficulties stemming from water damage, fires and bereavements, as well as permit problems, legal disputes and sound issues.
Additional spaces were granted funding support in improving facilities and technical equipment that positively impacted artists and fans.
"The idea that revenue from shows in big venues supports the smaller venues, where it all starts for performers like me, is just logical," the star has commented.
Fender is far from the only musician to give his award prize money to worthy causes.
Back when the band won the trophy in 1996 for their release Different Class, frontman Jarvis Cocker declared that the band would contribute their prize money to the charity War Child.
During 2002, rapper and singer Ms Dynamite shared her award across several charities, including the NSPCC and a Sickle Cell organization.
"And I donated a grand to my local community centre, to their gymnastics program, because I did gymnastics when I was younger and they required better apparatus," the artist told a publication.
In recent years, they donated their prize money to the youth organization that developed their band, alongside other grassroots music organisations.
Also winners that year they donated their prize to a multiple sclerosis charity after a acquaintance was diagnosed the disease.
"The victory was sufficient," stated singer Small. "The money was the bonus but we didn't require the extra, because we had the cake. So our victory touched the lives of others."
Last week, the trust revealed it had rescued two small stages in the South East, by bringing them into community ownership.
The first in Southampton and the other in the city were bought under the public acquisition initiative, which is funded by Arts Council England and music fans who buy "stakes" in the venues.
