The star has donated the full amount of his £25,000 award cash to the MVT, which operates to preserve the UK's grassroots live music spots.
Fender was awarded the award on 16 October as his new release his work was named the outstanding release of the previous year.
Fender has decided to give the cash to the trust, in acknowledgment of the essential function small stages played in his initial steps.
"I personally couldn't be pursuing my current career if it hadn't been for all the performances I played around the region, and further afield, when I was just getting going," stated the artist. "These spaces are iconic, but they are struggling."
From early 2023 onward, more than 150 of these venues have ceased operations – approximately 16% of the entire UK sector.
Recently, top acts like Pulp, the group Coldplay, Katy Perry and Sheeran have all supported the Music Venues Trust in its efforts to keep the scene afloat, by applying a minor surcharge to their admission fees, which goes to help smaller concert halls.
Fender also joined in, collecting more than £100,000 on his recent tour to help thirty-eight local spots across Britain.
The donation helped venues that were confronting possible closure due to challenges caused by flooding, blazes and personal losses, as well as permit problems, conflicts and sound issues.
Additional spaces obtained monetary aid in modernizing facilities 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 artists like me, is just sensible," Fender has said.
Fender is among several artists to contribute his honor prize money to charitable organizations.
When they received the prize in the year 1996 for their album the album, vocalist Cocker declared that the band would contribute their cash to the organization War Child.
That year, rapper and singer the artist shared her prize among multiple organizations, such as the NSPCC and a Sickle Cell organization.

In recent years, the band gave their funds to the youth organization that developed their act, in addition to other local music groups.
Also winners that year the group contributed their prize to a charity for MS after a acquaintance was identified with the illness.
"Winning was ample," stated vocalist the singer. "The cash was the extra but we could do without the extra, because we had the cake. So our winning impacted another person's life."
Last week, the Music Venues Trust shared it had protected a couple of grassroots venues in the South East, by bringing them into community ownership.
The first in Southampton and the second in Bristol were bought under the public acquisition scheme, which is funded by the arts council and supporters who acquire "ownership units" in the buildings.
