The star has given the entirety of his £25,000 Mercury Prize prize money to the trust for venues, which functions to protect the UK's independent concert spaces.
Fender was given the award on 16 October as his third album the album was chosen as the top album of the past year.
He has opted to donate the funds to the Music Venues Trust, in appreciation of the essential function small stages fulfilled in his initial steps.
"I couldn't be pursuing this success if it wasn't for all the performances I played around the area, and further afield, when I was beginning," remarked the artist. "These venues are legendary, but they are struggling."
Since the start of 2023, more than 150 of these venues have permanently closed – about 16% of the entire UK sector.
Recently, major artists such as Pulp, the group Coldplay, Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all supported the Music Venues Trust in its initiatives to support the industry, by applying a minor surcharge to their ticket costs, which supports smaller concert halls.
He also participated, generating in excess of £100,000 on his live tour to support numerous small stages across Britain.
The money helped spaces that were confronting possible closure due to issues caused by water damage, blazes and bereavements, as well as licensing issues, conflicts and neighbor objections.
Additional spaces received monetary aid in improving infrastructure and sound and lighting systems that helped artists and audiences.
"The notion that revenue from performances in big venues helps the independent spots, where it begins for musicians like me, is just common sense," the star has said.
He is among several artists to give his Mercury Prize funds to good deeds.
When they received the prize in 1996 for their album Different Class, frontman the singer announced that the band would give their winnings to the organization the charity.
During 2002, musician Ms Dynamite split her prize between several organizations, like the NSPCC and a Sickle Cell organization.
"Additionally, I contributed a thousand pounds to my local community centre, to their gymnastics class, because I did gymnastics when I was growing up and they required new equipment," Ms Dynamite shared with outlets.
Two years ago, they gave their prize money to the local youth club that developed their band, as well as other independent music bodies.
Also the 1994 recipients they donated their prize to a charity for MS after a friend was diagnosed the disease.
"The victory was ample," remarked artist the singer. "The prize was the extra but we didn't require the extra, because we had the cake. So our success affected the lives of others."
Recently, the MVT announced it had rescued a couple of small stages in south-east England, by transferring them to community ownership.
One venue in Southampton and the other in the city were purchased under the community ownership program, which is supported by a national body and enthusiasts who acquire "ownership units" in the venues.
