The star has handed over the full amount of his £25k honor winnings to the trust for venues, which operates to preserve the Britain's grassroots concert spaces.
He was given the cheque on 16 October as his latest record People Watching was chosen as the outstanding release of the past year.
He has chosen to give the cash to the MVT, in acknowledgment of the vital role grassroots venues played in his initial steps.
"As an artist couldn't be pursuing this success if it weren't for all the performances I performed around the area, and further afield, when I was beginning," said Sam Fender. "These spaces are renowned, but they are in difficulty."
Since the start of 2023, over 150 of these spaces have shut down – about 16 percent of the total UK scene.
Recently, well-known musicians including Pulp, the group Coldplay, Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all aided the MVT in its attempts to support the industry, by adding a small levy to their ticket costs, which supports local stages.
He also joined in, collecting in excess of £100,000 on his recent tour to assist 38 grassroots venues across the UK.
The money helped locations that were dealing with possible closure due to issues caused by floods, fire incidents and personal losses, as well as permit problems, conflicts and sound issues.
Some locations were granted financial assistance in improving amenities and gear that helped musicians and concertgoers.
"The notion that money from shows in large arenas backs the smaller venues, where it begins for artists like me, is just common sense," the star has said.
The musician is not the first artist to contribute his award prize money to charitable organizations.
In Pulp received the award in the year 1996 for their record their work, vocalist the singer declared that the act would donate their prize money to the charity War Child.
In 2002, rapper and singer the artist split her bounty among several charities, like the NSPCC and a Sickle Cell organization.
"Additionally, I contributed a grand to Highgate Newtown, to their gymnastics class, because I practiced gymnastics when I was growing up and they required updated gear," the artist shared with outlets.
Previously, they contributed their winnings to the community center that developed their group, alongside other independent music bodies.
Also winners that year the group donated their winnings to a MS organization after a close contact was diagnosed the condition.
"The victory was quite enough," remarked artist Heather Small. "The money was the bonus but we didn't need the cherry, because we had the honor. So our victory impacted another person's life."
In the past week, the MVT announced it had protected several grassroots venues in the South East, by bringing them into community ownership.
The Joiners in that area and the second in that location were bought under the Own Our Venues program, which is supported by a national body and music fans who buy "ownership units" in the properties.
