The artist has donated the full amount of his twenty-five thousand pound honor cash to the MVT, which functions to save the Britain's grassroots concert spaces.
He was awarded the cheque on 16 October as his new release his work was named the top album of the previous year.
Fender has chosen to give the cash to the trust, in appreciation of the crucial part grassroots venues fulfilled in his beginning days.
"I would not have achieved my current career if it wasn't for all the shows I played around the region, and beyond, when I was beginning," remarked Fender. "These spaces are legendary, but they are in difficulty."
From early 2023 onward, over 150 of these locations have shut down – roughly 16 percent of the entire UK sector.
Recently, top acts including Pulp, Coldplay, the singer Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all supported the Music Venues Trust in its initiatives to support the industry, by including a modest fee to their ticket costs, which benefits smaller concert halls.
He also participated, generating more than £100,000 on his 2024 arena tour to help 38 local spots across the UK.
The money helped venues that were dealing with imminent closure due to challenges stemming from floods, blazes and family tragedies, as well as permit problems, conflicts and neighbor objections.
Other venues were granted financial assistance in improving facilities and sound and lighting systems that directly benefitted artists and audiences.
"The idea that money from shows in major spaces backs the independent spots, where it begins for musicians like me, is just common sense," the star has stated.
The musician is far from the only musician to donate his Mercury Prize funds to worthy causes.
In Pulp received the trophy in 1996 for their release the album, lead singer Cocker stated that the group would give their cash to the charity War Child.
That year, rapper and singer she divided her prize between multiple charities, like the NSPCC and a charity for Sickle Cell.
"And I contributed a £1,000 to Highgate Newtown, to their gymnastics program, because I did gymnastics when I was a child and they required new equipment," Ms Dynamite told the media.
Two years ago, the band donated their prize money to the youth organization that nurtured their group, as well as other grassroots music organisations.
Additionally the 1994 recipients M People donated their winnings to a multiple sclerosis charity after a friend was identified with the illness.
"The victory was quite enough," said artist Small. "The cash was the bonus but we didn't require the extra, because we had the main prize. So our success affected somebody else's life."
Recently, the MVT shared it had protected a couple of small stages in that region, by bringing them into public stewardship.
One venue in Southampton 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 acquire "ownership units" in the venues.
