The artist has given the complete sum of his £25k Mercury Prize prize money to the MVT, which functions to preserve the Britain's small concert spaces.
Fender was given the cheque on 16 October as his third album his work was declared the best record of the previous year.
Fender has opted to donate the funds to the MVT, in recognition of the essential function grassroots venues fulfilled in his beginning days.
"I wouldn't be doing what I am doing today if it weren't for all the gigs I did around the region, and beyond, when I was beginning," said Fender. "These locations are iconic, but they are struggling."
From early 2023 onward, over 150 of these spaces have shut down – roughly 16% of the whole industry in the UK.
Over the past year, major artists such as the band Pulp, Coldplay, Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all supported the Music Venues Trust in its attempts to keep the scene afloat, by adding a minor surcharge to their ticket prices, which supports independent venues.
He also joined in, generating more than £100,000 on his live tour to assist thirty-eight small stages across Britain.
The donation supported venues that were facing possible closure due to issues stemming from floods, blazes and bereavements, as well as regulatory hurdles, legal disputes and neighbor objections.
Other venues received financial assistance in modernizing amenities and gear that positively impacted artists and concertgoers.
"The notion that revenue from performances in major spaces backs the local stages, where it begins for artists like me, is just logical," Fender has stated.
The musician is far from the only musician to donate his Mercury Prize funds to good deeds.
In Pulp received the award in 1996 for their release the album, lead singer the singer announced that the act would contribute their winnings to the non-profit the charity.
In 2002, rapper and singer the artist divided her award among multiple charities, including the NSPCC and a charity for Sickle Cell.
"Additionally, I contributed a grand to Highgate Newtown, to their gymnastics class, because I practiced gymnastics when I was a child and they needed updated gear," Ms Dynamite explained to the media.
Previously, they donated their prize money to the youth organization that supported their group, in addition to other local music groups.
Also winners that year the group gave their prize to a MS organization after a acquaintance was diagnosed the condition.
"Receiving the award was sufficient," stated artist the singer. "The prize was the extra but we didn't require the bonus, because we had the main prize. So our success touched the lives of others."
Recently, the Music Venues Trust announced it had rescued a couple of local spots in the South East, by placing them under public stewardship.
The Joiners in the city and the other in that location were acquired under the Own Our Venues initiative, which is backed by the arts council and supporters who buy "ownership units" in the venues.
