The star has handed over the entirety of his twenty-five thousand pound honor winnings to the trust for venues, which functions to save the Britain's small concert spaces.
Fender was given the prize on 16 October as his third album People Watching was chosen as the best record of the last 12 months.
Fender has opted to hand the money over to the MVT, in recognition of the essential function small stages had in his beginning days.
"I personally wouldn't be doing this success if it wasn't for all the gigs I did around the area, and beyond, when I was starting out," said the artist. "These venues are iconic, but they are in difficulty."
From early 2023 onward, more than 150 of these locations have permanently closed – about one-sixth of the total UK scene.
Recently, top acts such as Pulp, Coldplay, the singer Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all backed the trust in its efforts to help venues survive, by adding a modest fee to their ticket costs, which benefits local stages.
Fender also took part, generating more than £100,000 on his recent tour to help numerous local spots across England, Scotland, and Wales.
The money helped venues that were dealing with possible closure due to difficulties stemming from floods, blazes and personal losses, as well as permit problems, court cases and noise complaints.
Other venues were granted financial assistance in modernizing facilities and technical equipment that positively impacted performers and audiences.
"The concept that revenue from concerts in big venues backs the local stages, where it begins for artists like me, is just sensible," Sam Fender has said.
He is not the first artist to contribute his award winnings to good deeds.
Back when Pulp earned the award in the year 1996 for their record the album, vocalist the singer declared that the act would contribute their winnings to the organization War Child.
During 2002, rapper and singer she split her award between a few organizations, such as the NSPCC and a Sickle Cell charity.
"I also contributed a grand to the center, to their classes, because I trained in gymnastics when I was younger and they lacked updated gear," the artist explained to a publication.
Two years ago, they gave their funds to the youth organization that developed their band, alongside other independent music bodies.
Additionally winners that year they contributed their prize to a charity for MS after a friend was diagnosed the illness.
"Winning was quite enough," remarked singer the singer. "The prize was the bonus but we didn't require the extra, because we had the cake. So our victory affected another person's life."
In the past week, the trust revealed it had protected two small stages in that region, by placing them under public stewardship.
The first in Southampton and the other in Bristol were bought under the Own Our Venues scheme, which is supported by a national body and music fans who purchase "stakes" in the venues.
