The artist has handed over the entirety of his £25k Mercury Prize winnings to the MVT, which functions to preserve the UK's small live music spots.
The star was given the prize on mid-October as his third album People Watching was declared the best record of the last 12 months.
Fender has opted to give the cash to the trust, in recognition of the vital role grassroots venues had in his initial steps.
"As an artist wouldn't be doing my current career if it wasn't for all the shows I did around the North East, and elsewhere, when I was starting out," said the artist. "These venues are legendary, but they are in difficulty."
Beginning in 2023, more than 150 of these locations have permanently closed – about 16 percent of the whole industry in the UK.
In the last year, major artists such as the band Pulp, the group Coldplay, the singer Katy Perry and Sheeran have all backed the trust in its initiatives to keep the scene afloat, by adding a modest fee to their admission fees, which supports smaller concert halls.
Fender also took part, generating in excess of £100,000 on his recent tour to assist numerous local spots across the UK.
The money assisted venues that were dealing with potential shutdown due to challenges caused by flooding, blazes and family tragedies, as well as permit problems, court cases and noise complaints.
Additional spaces were granted funding support in improving infrastructure and technical equipment that positively impacted musicians and audiences.
"The notion that revenue from shows in large arenas helps the independent spots, where it begins for musicians like me, is just common sense," the star has stated.
He is not the first artist to donate his Mercury Prize prize money to good deeds.
When the band earned the prize in the year 1996 for their record their work, lead singer the singer declared that the group would contribute their cash to the charity War Child.
That year, rapper and singer Ms Dynamite shared her bounty across a few organizations, including the NSPCC and a Sickle Cell organization.
"Additionally, I donated a grand to the center, to their classes, because I practiced gymnastics when I was growing up and they required updated gear," Ms Dynamite told a publication.
Two years ago, Ezra Collective gave their funds to the youth organization that supported their group, alongside other local music groups.
Additionally the 1994 recipients M People gave their award to a multiple sclerosis charity after a acquaintance was identified with the condition.
"Winning was quite enough," said singer Small. "The cash was the bonus but we could do without the bonus, because we had the cake. So our victory affected the lives of others."
Last week, the MVT shared it had protected a couple of small stages in south-east England, by placing them under local control.
The first in the city and the other in the city were purchased under the community ownership program, which is backed by Arts Council England and music fans who acquire "stakes" in the buildings.
