The star has given the complete sum of his £25k award winnings to the Music Venues Trust, which operates to save the UK's small music venues.
He was awarded the award on 16 October as his latest record his work was named the best record of the previous year.
Fender has chosen to give the cash to the trust, in appreciation of the essential function local spots fulfilled in his initial steps.
"As an artist couldn't be pursuing my current career if it wasn't for all the gigs I performed around the region, and further afield, when I was beginning," stated Fender. "These spaces are legendary, but they are facing challenges."
Beginning in 2023, at least 150 of these locations have shut down – about 16% of the total UK scene.
Over the past year, top acts including the band Pulp, Coldplay, Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all aided the MVT in its attempts to support the industry, by including a small levy to their ticket costs, which supports local stages.
He also participated, generating more than £100,000 on his live tour to support 38 grassroots venues across England, Scotland, and Wales.
The donation helped spaces that were dealing with imminent closure due to challenges arising from flooding, blazes and family tragedies, as well as permit problems, court cases and noise complaints.
Additional spaces received funding support in improving amenities and sound and lighting systems that positively impacted artists and audiences.
"The concept that funds from shows in major spaces helps the smaller venues, where it all starts for artists like me, is just sensible," Fender has said.
Fender is far from the only musician to donate his award winnings to charitable organizations.
When Pulp earned the trophy in 1996 for their release the album, lead singer Jarvis Cocker announced that the group would donate their cash to the charity the charity.
During 2002, rapper and singer she shared her award between multiple organizations, like the children's charity and a charity for Sickle Cell.
"Additionally, I donated a £1,000 to my local community centre, to their gymnastics program, because I did gymnastics when I was growing up and they needed new equipment," she shared with a publication.
Previously, Ezra Collective contributed their funds to the youth organization that supported their act, in addition to other local music groups.
Also 1994 winners the group donated their winnings to a multiple sclerosis charity after a close contact was diagnosed the condition.
"Receiving the award was quite enough," said vocalist the singer. "The money was the cherry on top but we didn't need the bonus, because we had the main prize. So our success affected the lives of others."
In the past week, the MVT revealed it had protected several small stages in south-east England, by bringing them into local control.
The first in the city and The Croft in that location were purchased under the public acquisition initiative, which is backed by a national body and enthusiasts who buy "ownership units" in the venues.
