The star has handed over the full amount of his £25,000 award cash to the MVT, which works to save the United Kingdom's grassroots music venues.
Fender was awarded the award on October 16 as his latest record his work was chosen as the best record of the past year.
The musician has chosen to hand the money over to the trust, in recognition of the essential function grassroots venues played in his early career.
"I personally wouldn't be doing this success if it hadn't been for all the gigs I played around the region, and elsewhere, when I was just getting going," remarked the artist. "These spaces are legendary, but they are facing challenges."
Since the start of 2023, at least 150 of these venues have permanently closed – roughly 16 percent of the whole industry in the UK.
In the last year, major artists including Pulp, the group Coldplay, the singer Katy Perry and Sheeran have all backed the Music Venues Trust in its initiatives to keep the scene afloat, by adding a small levy to their admission fees, which goes to help local stages.
Fender also took part, collecting over £100k on his live tour to support thirty-eight small stages across the UK.
The donation helped spaces that were facing potential shutdown due to issues stemming from flooding, fires and bereavements, as well as permit problems, legal disputes and noise complaints.
Additional spaces were granted monetary aid in modernizing amenities and gear that positively impacted musicians and fans.
"The notion that revenue from shows in major spaces backs the local stages, where it begins for performers like me, is just common sense," the star has stated.
Fender is not the first artist to give his honor funds to charitable organizations.
When the band earned the trophy in the mid-90s for their release their work, vocalist Cocker announced that the band would contribute their winnings to the non-profit War Child.
That year, rapper and singer the artist divided her bounty among several good causes, such as the children's charity and a Sickle Cell charity.
"I also contributed a thousand pounds to the center, to their gymnastics class, because I did gymnastics when I was a child and they required updated gear," the artist told outlets.
Two years ago, the band donated their funds to the community center that nurtured their band, alongside other local music groups.
Additionally winners that year M People contributed their winnings to a MS organization after a acquaintance was identified with the condition.
"The victory was ample," said vocalist Heather Small. "The cash was the bonus but we could do without the extra, because we had the honor. So our winning touched the lives of others."
In the past week, the Music Venues Trust revealed it had saved a couple of local spots in that region, by bringing them into community ownership.
The Joiners in Southampton and The Croft in the city were purchased under the public acquisition program, which is funded by Arts Council England and supporters who buy "stakes" in the buildings.
