The star has handed over the full amount of his £25,000 award cash to the trust for venues, which works to save the UK's independent music venues.
The star was given the cheque on October 16 as his third album his work was declared the outstanding release of the last 12 months.
Fender has chosen to donate the funds to the trust, in recognition of the vital role grassroots venues fulfilled in his beginning days.
"As an artist couldn't be pursuing what I am doing today if it wasn't for all the gigs I performed around the area, and beyond, when I was beginning," remarked the artist. "These spaces are iconic, but they are struggling."
From early 2023 onward, more than 150 of these venues have ceased operations – about one-sixth of the whole industry in the UK.
Over the past year, top acts like Pulp, Coldplay, Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all aided the trust in its attempts to help venues survive, by including a small levy to their ticket prices, which goes to help local stages.
He also took part, raising over £100k on his recent tour to assist 38 grassroots venues across the UK.
The donation helped venues that were dealing with potential shutdown due to issues stemming from water damage, blazes and bereavements, as well as regulatory hurdles, legal disputes and noise complaints.
Other venues received funding support in improving amenities and gear that helped musicians and fans.
"The notion that revenue from shows in large arenas supports the local stages, where it all starts for performers like me, is just sensible," the star has stated.
Fender is among several artists to contribute his honor funds to good deeds.
In Pulp received the prize in the mid-90s for their record their work, vocalist Jarvis Cocker stated that the group would donate their winnings to the organization War Child.
That year, artist she divided her prize across several good causes, like the children's charity and a Sickle Cell organization.
"And I donated a grand to my local community centre, to their gymnastics class, because I trained in gymnastics when I was younger and they needed better apparatus," Ms Dynamite told the media.
In recent years, the band gave their funds to the youth organization that supported their band, alongside other grassroots music organisations.
Also 1994 winners M People gave their prize to a charity for MS after a friend was diagnosed the illness.
"Winning was sufficient," remarked vocalist Small. "The prize was the cherry on top but we didn't need the cherry, because we had the cake. So our victory impacted another person's life."
Recently, the Music Venues Trust announced it had protected several local spots in the South East, by transferring them to community ownership.
One venue in Southampton and the second in that location were acquired under the public acquisition initiative, which is supported by a national body and enthusiasts who buy "shares" in the buildings.
