The artist has given the full amount of his £25,000 Mercury Prize cash to the trust for venues, which functions to save the Britain's grassroots live music spots.
The star was presented with the cheque on 16 October as his new release the album was named the best record of the last 12 months.
Fender has decided to give the cash to the trust, in appreciation of the vital role grassroots venues played in his beginning days.
"I personally would not have achieved what I am doing today if it weren't for all the performances I performed around the North East, and beyond, when I was beginning," remarked the artist. "These locations are legendary, but they are struggling."
Since the start of 2023, over 150 of these venues have permanently closed – roughly 16% of the whole industry in the UK.
Recently, major artists including Pulp, Coldplay, Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all aided the MVT in its initiatives to help venues survive, by applying a modest fee to their ticket costs, which benefits smaller concert halls.
He also participated, collecting in excess of £100,000 on his 2024 arena tour to support numerous small stages across Britain.
The donation assisted spaces that were dealing with possible closure due to challenges caused by flooding, fire incidents and bereavements, as well as permit problems, conflicts and noise complaints.
Additional spaces received monetary aid in modernizing infrastructure and gear that directly benefitted artists and fans.
"The idea that money from concerts in big venues helps the independent spots, where it all starts for artists like me, is just logical," Fender has said.
He is far from the only musician to donate his honor prize money to good deeds.
When they received the prize in 1996 for their release Different Class, vocalist Jarvis Cocker stated that the act would give their cash to the non-profit War Child.
During 2002, musician Ms Dynamite shared her bounty among a few organizations, such as the NSPCC and a charity for Sickle Cell.
"I also contributed a thousand pounds to Highgate Newtown, to their gymnastics program, because I trained in gymnastics when I was younger and they needed better apparatus," Ms Dynamite explained to a publication.
Previously, the band contributed their prize money to the community center that developed their group, as well as other independent music bodies.
Also winners that year they donated their winnings to a charity for MS after a close contact was diagnosed the disease.
"The victory was ample," stated vocalist Heather Small. "The cash was the cherry on top but we could do without the extra, because we had the cake. So our success impacted the lives of others."
Last week, the trust revealed it had protected two grassroots venues in that region, by placing them under local control.
The first in that area and the second in that location were purchased under the Own Our Venues initiative, which is backed by the arts council and music fans who acquire "stakes" in the venues.
