The artist has donated the full amount of his £25,000 Mercury Prize cash to the trust for venues, which works to preserve the UK's grassroots music venues.
He was awarded the prize on 16 October as his third album People Watching was chosen as the outstanding release of the previous year.
He has opted to give the cash to the MVT, in acknowledgment of the crucial part small stages played in his beginning days.
"I would not have achieved my current career if it wasn't for all the performances I played around the region, and elsewhere, when I was just getting going," stated Fender. "These locations are renowned, but they are struggling."
Since the start of 2023, over 150 of these locations have permanently closed – about 16 percent of the whole industry in the UK.
In the last year, major artists such as Pulp, the group Coldplay, Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all backed the trust in its initiatives to help venues survive, by including a minor surcharge to their admission fees, which supports independent venues.
He also took part, collecting in excess of £100,000 on his recent tour to help 38 local spots across the UK.
The donation supported spaces that were confronting imminent closure due to challenges caused by flooding, fire incidents and bereavements, as well as licensing issues, conflicts and noise complaints.
Additional spaces were granted financial assistance in upgrading infrastructure and gear that directly benefitted musicians and fans.
"The notion that money from shows in major spaces backs the independent spots, where it kicks off for musicians like me, is just logical," Sam Fender has said.
The musician is among several artists to contribute his Mercury Prize funds to charitable organizations.
In they received the prize in the year 1996 for their release the album, vocalist Cocker announced that the group would give their winnings to the charity War Child.
In 2002, artist the artist divided her prize across several organizations, like the NSPCC and a Sickle Cell organization.
"Additionally, I contributed a £1,000 to Highgate Newtown, to their gymnastics class, because I trained in gymnastics when I was a child and they needed updated gear," Ms Dynamite shared with a publication.
Previously, they gave their prize money to the youth organization that nurtured their band, as well as other grassroots music organisations.
Also the 1994 recipients they donated their prize to a MS organization after a close contact was identified with the illness.
"Winning was sufficient," said artist Small. "The money was the extra but we could do without the extra, because we had the main prize. So our victory affected somebody else's life."
Last week, the trust announced it had saved several grassroots venues in south-east England, by transferring them to community ownership.
The Joiners in that area and The Croft in Bristol were bought under the Own Our Venues scheme, which is funded by Arts Council England and music fans who acquire "stakes" in the buildings.
