The star has handed over the complete sum of his £25k Mercury Prize winnings to the Music Venues Trust, which operates to protect the United Kingdom's small music venues.
He was given the cheque on mid-October as his third album his work was chosen as the top album of the last 12 months.
The musician has opted to give the cash to the MVT, in appreciation of the crucial part local spots fulfilled in his initial steps.
"I personally wouldn't be doing my current career if it hadn't been for all the performances I performed around the area, and beyond, when I was beginning," said the artist. "These locations are renowned, but they are struggling."
Beginning in 2023, over 150 of these spaces have shut down – approximately 16 percent of the total UK scene.
In the last year, top acts such as Pulp, Coldplay, Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all supported the MVT in its attempts to keep the scene afloat, by adding a minor surcharge to their ticket prices, which goes to help independent venues.
He also participated, collecting over £100k on his recent tour to support numerous small stages across the UK.
These funds helped spaces that were dealing with possible closure due to difficulties stemming from water damage, fire incidents and personal losses, as well as regulatory hurdles, court cases and noise complaints.
Other venues received monetary aid in modernizing amenities and technical equipment that directly benefitted artists and audiences.
"The idea that money from concerts in major spaces helps the smaller venues, where it begins for artists like me, is just common sense," Sam Fender has said.
The musician is far from the only musician to give his honor funds to worthy causes.

"I also contributed a £1,000 to Highgate Newtown, to their gymnastics program, because I did gymnastics when I was younger and they lacked new equipment," the artist told the media.
In recent years, Ezra Collective donated their winnings to the community center that nurtured their band, as well as other independent music bodies.
Additionally the 1994 recipients they gave their award to a MS organization after a friend was identified with the condition.
"The victory was ample," remarked artist Small. "The prize was the extra but we didn't need the bonus, because we had the cake. So our winning affected the lives of others."
Last week, the trust revealed it had saved a couple of small stages in south-east England, by placing them under public stewardship.
One venue in the city and the other in that location were acquired under the Own Our Venues program, which is supported by a national body and music fans who purchase "ownership units" in the buildings.
