The star has given the complete sum of his £25k award prize money to the MVT, which works to preserve the Britain's independent concert spaces.
The star was presented with the award on 16 October as his latest record People Watching was chosen as the top album of the previous year.
The musician has opted to give the cash to the MVT, in appreciation of the crucial part grassroots venues had in his beginning days.
"As an artist would not have achieved my current career if it weren't for all the performances I played around the region, and beyond, when I was starting out," remarked Fender. "These venues are renowned, but they are struggling."
From early 2023 onward, over 150 of these spaces have permanently closed – approximately one-sixth of the whole industry in the UK.
Recently, well-known musicians such as Pulp, Coldplay, the singer Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all supported the trust in its efforts to support the industry, by adding a minor surcharge to their ticket prices, which goes to help independent venues.
Sam Fender also took part, collecting in excess of £100,000 on his live tour to support numerous local spots across the UK.
The donation supported venues that were facing potential shutdown due to difficulties arising from flooding, fire incidents and bereavements, as well as regulatory hurdles, legal disputes and noise complaints.
Some locations were granted monetary aid in upgrading infrastructure and technical equipment that positively impacted musicians and fans.
"The concept that money from performances in major spaces supports the smaller venues, where it all starts for artists like me, is just sensible," the star has stated.
The musician is among several artists to contribute his Mercury Prize prize money to charitable organizations.
In the band received the trophy in the mid-90s for their release their work, frontman the singer announced that the act would give their prize money to the non-profit War Child.
That year, artist Ms Dynamite split her bounty between a few organizations, such as the children's charity and a Sickle Cell charity.
"I also contributed a £1,000 to my local community centre, to their gymnastics class, because I trained in gymnastics when I was growing up and they needed updated gear," Ms Dynamite explained to a publication.
In recent years, they donated their prize money to the youth organization that developed their act, alongside other independent music bodies.
Additionally 1994 winners they contributed their winnings to a MS organization after a acquaintance was identified with the disease.
"The victory was sufficient," remarked artist the singer. "The prize was the extra but we didn't need the cherry, because we had the main prize. So our success touched somebody else's life."
Last week, the Music Venues Trust announced it had protected two local spots in that region, by transferring them to local control.
The Joiners in the city and the other in Bristol were acquired under the public acquisition scheme, which is funded by Arts Council England and supporters who acquire "ownership units" in the venues.
