The star has donated the full amount of his £25,000 Mercury Prize winnings to the MVT, which functions to protect the Britain's independent live music spots.
The star was presented with the prize on October 16 as his third album People Watching was chosen as the best record of the past year.
He has chosen to hand the money over to the Music Venues Trust, in acknowledgment of the essential function grassroots venues had in his initial steps.
"I personally wouldn't be doing my current career if it hadn't been for all the shows I did around the North East, and beyond, when I was beginning," said Fender. "These spaces are legendary, but they are struggling."
From early 2023 onward, over 150 of these locations have shut down – roughly 16% of the whole industry in the UK.
In the last year, major artists such as the band Pulp, Coldplay, Katy Perry and Sheeran have all supported the MVT in its initiatives to help venues survive, by adding a minor surcharge to their ticket prices, which supports independent venues.
He also took part, generating in excess of £100,000 on his live tour to help 38 small stages across Britain.
The money assisted venues that were dealing with imminent closure due to issues stemming from water damage, fires and family tragedies, as well as licensing issues, legal disputes and sound issues.
Additional spaces received funding support in improving infrastructure and sound and lighting systems that directly benefitted musicians and concertgoers.
"The notion that money from performances in big venues helps the independent spots, where it kicks off for performers like me, is just logical," Fender has stated.
The musician is not the first artist to contribute his honor prize money to good deeds.
Back when Pulp received the trophy in the mid-90s for their album their work, frontman Jarvis Cocker announced that the act would donate their winnings to the organization War Child.
During 2002, rapper and singer the artist split her award between several charities, including the children's charity and a Sickle Cell organization.
"Additionally, I donated a grand to the center, to their gymnastics program, because I practiced gymnastics when I was younger and they required new equipment," Ms Dynamite told a publication.
Previously, Ezra Collective gave their funds to the youth organization that nurtured their act, as well as other local music groups.
Additionally 1994 winners M People gave their award to a multiple sclerosis charity after a friend was identified with the disease.
"The victory was ample," stated singer the singer. "The cash was the cherry on top but we didn't need the extra, because we had the main prize. So our winning impacted another person's life."
Last week, the Music Venues Trust shared it had saved two small stages in south-east England, by transferring them to local control.
The first in that area and the other in the city were bought under the public acquisition program, which is funded by Arts Council England and enthusiasts who acquire "stakes" in the buildings.
