The star has handed over the full amount of his £25,000 Mercury Prize winnings to the Music Venues Trust, which works to save the UK's grassroots concert spaces.
Fender was given the cheque on 16 October as his latest record the album was named the top album of the previous year.
Fender has opted to donate the funds to the Music Venues Trust, in recognition of the essential function small stages had in his initial steps.
"As an artist would not have achieved this success if it wasn't for all the gigs I performed around the North East, and beyond, when I was beginning," remarked Sam Fender. "These venues are iconic, but they are facing challenges."
Beginning in 2023, at least 150 of these spaces have ceased operations – about 16 percent of the whole industry in the UK.
Over the past year, major artists like Pulp, Coldplay, Katy Perry and Sheeran have all supported the Music Venues Trust in its efforts to keep the scene afloat, by including a minor surcharge to their ticket prices, which benefits smaller concert halls.
He also joined in, generating in excess of £100,000 on his live tour to assist 38 grassroots venues across the UK.
These funds helped locations that were confronting possible closure due to challenges arising from flooding, fires and bereavements, as well as licensing issues, court cases and neighbor objections.
Additional spaces obtained financial assistance in improving infrastructure and sound and lighting systems that positively impacted musicians and fans.
"The concept that money from shows in major spaces supports the smaller venues, where it kicks off for artists like me, is just logical," Fender has stated.
He is among several artists to donate his Mercury Prize prize money to charitable organizations.
In they received the trophy in 1996 for their record the album, lead singer Jarvis Cocker announced that the act would donate their cash to the non-profit War Child.
In 2002, artist Ms Dynamite shared her bounty among a few good causes, such as the children's charity and a Sickle Cell organization.
"Additionally, I donated a £1,000 to my local community centre, to their gymnastics program, because I practiced gymnastics when I was growing up and they lacked new equipment," Ms Dynamite told the media.
In recent years, they gave their winnings to the local youth club that nurtured their group, alongside other local music groups.
Additionally winners that year M People donated their prize to a multiple sclerosis charity after a close contact was identified with the condition.
"Receiving the award was sufficient," remarked singer the singer. "The cash was the extra but we didn't require the bonus, because we had the main prize. So our winning touched somebody else's life."
In the past week, the trust shared it had rescued a couple of grassroots venues in the South East, by bringing them into community ownership.
One venue in Southampton and the other in that location were bought under the community ownership scheme, which is backed by the arts council and music fans who buy "shares" in the venues.
