The artist has given the complete sum of his £25,000 Mercury Prize cash to the trust for venues, which works to save the Britain's independent music venues.
The star was given the prize on October 16 as his new release the album was declared the top album of the last 12 months.
The musician has chosen to donate the funds to the trust, in recognition of the crucial part grassroots venues had in his early career.
"As an artist would not have achieved this success if it weren't for all the shows I played around the North East, and further afield, when I was starting out," remarked the artist. "These spaces are iconic, but they are in difficulty."
From early 2023 onward, over 150 of these spaces have permanently closed – roughly one-sixth of the entire UK sector.
Over the past year, major artists such as the band Pulp, Coldplay, the singer Katy Perry and Sheeran have all aided the MVT in its initiatives to keep the scene afloat, by applying a small levy to their ticket costs, which supports independent venues.
He also joined in, generating over £100k on his recent tour to assist numerous grassroots venues across the UK.
These funds supported venues that were confronting potential shutdown due to issues stemming from floods, fire incidents and bereavements, as well as regulatory hurdles, court cases and sound issues.
Additional spaces received financial assistance in upgrading facilities and technical equipment that positively impacted artists and fans.
"The idea that money from performances in large arenas supports the local stages, where it begins for performers like me, is just common sense," Fender has commented.
The musician is among several artists to donate his award winnings to charitable organizations.
When the band won the trophy in the mid-90s for their release Different Class, lead singer the singer announced that the act would give their cash to the non-profit the charity.
In 2002, rapper and singer the artist shared her prize across a few good causes, such as the NSPCC and a Sickle Cell organization.
"And I donated a thousand pounds to my local community centre, to their gymnastics class, because I trained in gymnastics when I was younger and they required new equipment," Ms Dynamite explained to the media.
In recent years, they gave their winnings to the community center that supported their band, as well as other local music groups.
Additionally winners that year the group gave their prize to a multiple sclerosis charity after a close contact was diagnosed the disease.
"Winning was ample," said vocalist Heather Small. "The cash was the bonus but we didn't require the extra, because we had the main prize. So our success affected another person's life."
Last week, the MVT revealed it had rescued two small stages in that region, by transferring them to community ownership.
The Joiners in Southampton and The Croft in Bristol were acquired under the community ownership program, which is supported by a national body and enthusiasts who buy "shares" in the venues.
