The star has donated the complete sum of his twenty-five thousand pound award winnings to the Music Venues Trust, which works to preserve the Britain's grassroots live music spots.
The star was presented with the prize on mid-October as his third album his work was chosen as the best record of the past year.
Fender has chosen to give the cash to the Music Venues Trust, in appreciation of the vital role grassroots venues fulfilled in his initial steps.
"I would not have achieved this success if it wasn't for all the gigs I played around the area, and beyond, when I was just getting going," stated Fender. "These venues are legendary, but they are struggling."
From early 2023 onward, over 150 of these venues have shut down – roughly 16 percent of the whole industry in the UK.
Over the past year, well-known musicians including the band Pulp, Coldplay, the singer Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all backed the MVT in its initiatives to support the industry, by adding a modest fee to their admission fees, which benefits independent venues.
He also joined in, generating over £100k on his live tour to assist 38 small stages across the UK.
The donation assisted venues that were facing imminent closure due to issues stemming from flooding, fire incidents and personal losses, as well as permit problems, legal disputes and sound issues.
Other venues were granted funding support in modernizing amenities and sound and lighting systems that positively impacted performers and audiences.
"The idea that funds from performances in big venues helps the local stages, where it all starts for performers like me, is just common sense," the star has said.
He is far from the only musician to give his honor prize money to charitable organizations.
In Pulp received the award in the year 1996 for their release the album, lead singer Cocker announced that the band would contribute their winnings to the charity the charity.
During 2002, musician the artist shared her bounty among multiple good causes, such as the NSPCC and a Sickle Cell charity.
"And I donated a £1,000 to Highgate Newtown, to their classes, because I practiced gymnastics when I was growing up and they needed updated gear," Ms Dynamite shared with outlets.
Previously, the band donated their funds to the community center that developed their group, as well as other grassroots music organisations.
And 1994 winners they gave their award to a charity for MS after a acquaintance was found to have the disease.
"Winning was sufficient," stated vocalist Heather Small. "The cash was the extra but we didn't need the extra, because we had the cake. So our victory affected somebody else's life."
Last week, the MVT shared it had rescued a couple of small stages in the South East, by bringing them into local control.
The first in Southampton and the second in Bristol were bought under the Own Our Venues scheme, which is backed by the arts council and supporters who purchase "ownership units" in the buildings.
