The star has donated the complete sum of his £25,000 honor prize money to the trust for venues, which operates to preserve the UK's independent music venues.
Fender was awarded the cheque on 16 October as his latest record his work was declared the outstanding release of the last 12 months.
Fender has decided to hand the money over to the MVT, in recognition of the crucial part grassroots venues fulfilled in his beginning days.
"I personally would not have achieved this success if it hadn't been for all the performances I played around the area, and beyond, when I was starting out," said the artist. "These spaces are renowned, but they are facing challenges."
From early 2023 onward, at least 150 of these spaces have permanently closed – approximately one-sixth of the whole industry in the UK.
In the last year, major artists including Pulp, the group Coldplay, the singer Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all supported the trust in its attempts to support the industry, by including a modest fee to their ticket costs, which goes to help independent venues.
Fender also participated, generating more than £100,000 on his live tour to help numerous small stages across England, Scotland, and Wales.
The money assisted spaces that were dealing with imminent closure due to challenges arising from flooding, fires and bereavements, as well as permit problems, legal disputes and neighbor objections.
Additional spaces obtained funding support in improving facilities and sound and lighting systems that directly benefitted performers and audiences.
"The concept that revenue from performances in major spaces helps the local stages, where it kicks off for artists like me, is just logical," the star has commented.
Fender is among several artists to give his award funds to good deeds.
In they earned the award in the mid-90s for their release Different Class, vocalist the singer declared that the act would give their winnings to the non-profit War Child.
During 2002, rapper and singer she split her award among a few charities, like the NSPCC and a Sickle Cell charity.
"Additionally, I contributed a thousand pounds to the center, to their gymnastics class, because I did gymnastics when I was younger and they lacked new equipment," Ms Dynamite shared with outlets.
Two years ago, Ezra Collective donated their funds to the youth organization that supported their act, as well as other local music groups.
Also 1994 winners they contributed their prize to a MS organization after a acquaintance was identified with the disease.
"Winning was sufficient," stated vocalist the singer. "The cash was the extra but we didn't require the cherry, because we had the cake. So our winning touched the lives of others."
Last week, the trust revealed it had saved several local spots in south-east England, by bringing them into public stewardship.
One venue in Southampton and the other in that location were bought under the community ownership program, which is backed by the arts council and music fans who acquire "ownership units" in the venues.
