The star has given the full amount of his twenty-five thousand pound Mercury Prize cash to the Music Venues Trust, which operates to save the UK's independent live music spots.
The star was given the award on mid-October as his new release his work was named the outstanding release of the last 12 months.
Fender has opted to hand the money over to the MVT, in recognition of the vital role small stages had in his initial steps.
"As an artist couldn't be pursuing what I am doing today if it hadn't been for all the performances I did around the area, and beyond, when I was beginning," said Sam Fender. "These locations are legendary, but they are facing challenges."
From early 2023 onward, over 150 of these locations have shut down – about one-sixth of the entire UK sector.
Over the past year, top acts such as the band Pulp, Coldplay, the singer Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all aided the trust in its initiatives to help venues survive, by adding a minor surcharge to their ticket costs, which goes to help local stages.
Fender also took part, generating more than £100,000 on his live tour to help numerous local spots across Britain.
The money helped venues that were confronting potential shutdown due to issues caused by water damage, fire incidents and bereavements, as well as permit problems, court cases and noise complaints.
Some locations received financial assistance in modernizing amenities and technical equipment that helped performers and audiences.
"The notion that money from shows in major spaces helps the local stages, where it begins for performers like me, is just sensible," Fender has commented.
The musician is far from the only musician to contribute his honor prize money to charitable organizations.
When they received the award in 1996 for their record Different Class, lead singer Jarvis Cocker announced that the band would donate their prize money to the charity War Child.
During 2002, artist the artist shared her bounty among several good causes, including the NSPCC and a Sickle Cell organization.
"I also gave a grand to the center, to their gymnastics class, because I trained in gymnastics when I was growing up and they required new equipment," she explained to a publication.
In recent years, the band gave their funds to the community center that nurtured their group, as well as other local music groups.
Additionally winners that year they contributed their award to a multiple sclerosis charity after a close contact was diagnosed the condition.
"Receiving the award was sufficient," said artist the singer. "The cash was the cherry on top but we didn't require the cherry, because we had the main prize. So our winning impacted somebody else's life."
In the past week, the trust revealed it had protected several small stages in south-east England, by placing them under public stewardship.
The Joiners in that area and the other in Bristol were purchased under the public acquisition scheme, which is backed by a national body and music fans who buy "stakes" in the properties.
