The star has given the complete sum of his twenty-five thousand pound honor prize money to the trust for venues, which operates to protect the Britain's independent live music spots.
Fender was awarded the award on mid-October as his third album the album was chosen as the outstanding release of the past year.
Fender has chosen to hand the money over to the trust, in recognition of the essential function small stages played in his early career.
"I personally couldn't be pursuing this success if it weren't for all the performances I played around the North East, and further afield, when I was just getting going," remarked the artist. "These venues are legendary, but they are facing challenges."
Beginning in 2023, at least 150 of these spaces have shut down – roughly one-sixth of the total UK scene.
Over the past year, top acts like Pulp, the group Coldplay, Katy Perry and Sheeran have all backed the trust in its initiatives to help venues survive, by applying a minor surcharge to their ticket prices, which goes to help smaller concert halls.
He also participated, collecting over £100k on his recent tour to assist 38 local spots across the UK.
The donation supported venues that were facing imminent closure due to issues arising from flooding, fire incidents and personal losses, as well as regulatory hurdles, court cases and sound issues.
Some locations were granted monetary aid in modernizing facilities and gear that directly benefitted artists and concertgoers.
"The notion that funds from concerts in big venues backs the smaller venues, where it kicks off for artists like me, is just common sense," Fender has stated.
The musician is not the first artist to give his award funds to charitable organizations.
In the band earned the prize in the mid-90s for their release the album, vocalist Jarvis Cocker announced that the act would contribute their winnings to the non-profit War Child.
That year, rapper and singer she split her prize between a few charities, including the NSPCC and a charity for Sickle Cell.
"And I donated a grand to my local community centre, to their gymnastics class, because I did gymnastics when I was growing up and they lacked better apparatus," the artist explained to the media.
Two years ago, the band gave their winnings to the local youth club that supported their act, in addition to other grassroots music organisations.
Also the 1994 recipients they gave their prize to a MS organization after a friend was found to have the illness.
"Receiving the award was ample," said singer the singer. "The money was the cherry on top but we could do without the bonus, because we had the cake. So our winning impacted the lives of others."
Recently, the MVT announced it had protected a couple of small stages in the South East, by transferring them to community ownership.
The first in the city and The Croft in Bristol were purchased under the public acquisition scheme, which is funded by a national body and supporters who buy "shares" in the buildings.
