The star has handed over the complete sum of his £25,000 award prize money to the trust for venues, which works to save the Britain's small live music spots.
He was presented with the cheque on mid-October as his new release his work was declared the top album of the past year.
He has chosen to donate the funds to the Music Venues Trust, in appreciation of the essential function grassroots venues fulfilled in his beginning days.
"I personally couldn't be pursuing what I am doing today if it weren't for all the gigs I performed around the area, and further afield, when I was starting out," remarked Fender. "These venues are renowned, but they are facing challenges."
From early 2023 onward, more than 150 of these locations have shut down – about one-sixth of the whole industry in the UK.
Over the past year, well-known musicians including Pulp, the group Coldplay, the singer Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all backed the Music Venues Trust in its efforts to help venues survive, by including a minor surcharge to their ticket prices, which benefits smaller concert halls.
Fender also participated, raising in excess of £100,000 on his 2024 arena tour to assist numerous local spots across England, Scotland, and Wales.
These funds assisted spaces that were facing imminent closure due to difficulties stemming from water damage, fires and bereavements, as well as regulatory hurdles, court cases and noise complaints.
Some locations were granted funding support in improving facilities and gear that helped artists and audiences.
"The notion that money from shows in large arenas helps the local stages, where it all starts for musicians like me, is just logical," the star has stated.
The musician is far from the only musician to contribute his honor funds to worthy causes.

"And I donated a £1,000 to Highgate Newtown, to their gymnastics program, because I practiced gymnastics when I was a child and they needed better apparatus," the artist explained to a publication.
Two years ago, Ezra Collective donated their prize money to the community center that developed their group, as well as other local music groups.
Also the 1994 recipients the group gave their award to a charity for MS after a friend was identified with the disease.
"The victory was sufficient," said vocalist Small. "The cash was the bonus but we didn't require the bonus, because we had the cake. So our success impacted the lives of others."
In the past week, the Music Venues Trust shared it had protected two grassroots venues in south-east England, by bringing them into public stewardship.
The Joiners in the city and The Croft in the city were purchased under the community ownership program, which is backed by Arts Council England and enthusiasts who buy "ownership units" in the venues.
