The artist has donated the full amount of his twenty-five thousand pound honor cash to the MVT, which operates to protect the UK's small live music spots.
The star was presented with the prize on mid-October as his latest record the album was declared the top album of the past year.
Fender has chosen to give the cash to the trust, in recognition of the essential function small stages fulfilled in his initial steps.
"I would not have achieved this success if it hadn't been for all the performances I performed around the area, and beyond, when I was beginning," said Fender. "These venues are iconic, but they are facing challenges."
Since the start of 2023, at least 150 of these venues have shut down – about one-sixth of the whole industry in the UK.
In the last year, well-known musicians like Pulp, the group Coldplay, the singer Katy Perry and Sheeran have all aided the Music Venues Trust in its efforts to help venues survive, by adding a small levy to their admission fees, which goes to help independent venues.
He also took part, generating over £100k on his live tour to support numerous small stages across the UK.
The donation supported venues that were dealing with imminent closure due to difficulties arising from floods, blazes and personal losses, as well as licensing issues, court cases and neighbor objections.
Some locations obtained financial assistance in upgrading facilities and technical equipment that positively impacted performers and concertgoers.
"The concept that funds from performances in major spaces backs the local stages, where it all starts for artists like me, is just sensible," the star has said.
Fender is among several artists to contribute his award prize money to good deeds.
In they received the prize in 1996 for their album Different Class, vocalist the singer stated that the group would give their cash to the non-profit War Child.
In 2002, artist the artist split her award between several good causes, like the NSPCC and a Sickle Cell organization.
"I also gave a £1,000 to Highgate Newtown, to their classes, because I did gymnastics when I was younger and they needed updated gear," the artist explained to a publication.
Previously, Ezra Collective gave their funds to the youth organization that developed their group, alongside other local music groups.
Additionally winners that year they gave their prize to a multiple sclerosis charity after a friend was diagnosed the illness.
"Receiving the award was ample," said artist the singer. "The prize was the bonus but we could do without the cherry, because we had the cake. So our winning affected the lives of others."
In the past week, the trust announced it had rescued a couple of grassroots venues in that region, by placing them under community ownership.
The first in Southampton and The Croft in Bristol were acquired under the Own Our Venues scheme, which is funded by the arts council and supporters who acquire "shares" in the venues.
