The star has donated the entirety of his £25k Mercury Prize winnings to the trust for venues, which operates to protect the Britain's grassroots live music spots.
He was presented with the award on 16 October as his new release his work was chosen as the top album of the last 12 months.
He has chosen to donate the funds to the MVT, in recognition of the crucial part grassroots venues played in his early career.
"I wouldn't be doing what I am doing today if it wasn't for all the shows I played around the region, and elsewhere, when I was starting out," stated Sam Fender. "These venues are renowned, but they are facing challenges."
Beginning in 2023, more than 150 of these spaces have ceased operations – about one-sixth of the whole industry in the UK.
Over the past year, well-known musicians including Pulp, the group Coldplay, the singer Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all supported the MVT in its initiatives to support the industry, by applying a small levy to their ticket prices, which benefits smaller concert halls.
He also participated, raising over £100k on his recent tour to support numerous grassroots venues across England, Scotland, and Wales.
These funds supported venues that were dealing with imminent closure due to challenges caused by flooding, fire incidents and bereavements, as well as licensing issues, conflicts and sound issues.
Additional spaces obtained funding support in modernizing facilities and technical equipment that helped musicians and audiences.
"The idea that funds from performances in major spaces supports the independent spots, where it kicks off for musicians like me, is just logical," Fender has said.
Fender is far from the only musician to give his Mercury Prize prize money to charitable organizations.
Back when the band earned the prize in the year 1996 for their record the album, vocalist the singer declared that the group would contribute their winnings to the organization War Child.
During 2002, artist she shared her bounty across several organizations, like the children's charity and a charity for Sickle Cell.
"I also contributed a thousand pounds to Highgate Newtown, to their gymnastics program, because I practiced gymnastics when I was a child and they required better apparatus," she told a publication.
Two years ago, the band donated their prize money to the local youth club that developed their act, alongside other grassroots music organisations.
And the 1994 recipients the group donated their prize to a charity for MS after a close contact was found to have the disease.
"The victory was sufficient," said artist Heather Small. "The prize was the cherry on top but we didn't require the bonus, because we had the main prize. So our victory touched another person's life."
Last week, the MVT announced it had rescued two small stages in the South East, by placing them under community ownership.
One venue in the city and the other in the city were acquired under the public acquisition initiative, which is funded by the arts council and music fans who acquire "shares" in the properties.
