The star has handed over the full amount of his £25,000 honor cash to the MVT, which works to save the United Kingdom's independent live music spots.
He was given the award on 16 October as his third album People Watching was chosen as the top album of the last 12 months.
The musician has decided to donate the funds to the trust, in acknowledgment of the essential function small stages played in his initial steps.
"I couldn't be pursuing this success if it hadn't been for all the shows I did around the region, and further afield, when I was beginning," stated the artist. "These venues are legendary, but they are facing challenges."
From early 2023 onward, more than 150 of these venues have permanently closed – roughly 16% of the entire UK sector.
Recently, major artists including Pulp, Coldplay, Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all backed the Music Venues Trust in its attempts to support the industry, by applying a small levy to their admission fees, which supports smaller concert halls.
He also took part, collecting in excess of £100,000 on his 2024 arena tour to support 38 local spots across the UK.
The money helped locations that were facing possible closure due to issues arising from floods, fire incidents and bereavements, as well as permit problems, court cases and noise complaints.
Some locations received monetary aid in upgrading amenities and sound and lighting systems that directly benefitted artists and concertgoers.
"The idea that money from shows in major spaces helps the smaller venues, where it begins for artists like me, is just common sense," the star has said.
The musician is not the first artist to contribute his Mercury Prize funds to charitable organizations.
When Pulp earned the award in the year 1996 for their record the album, frontman the singer declared that the act would donate their prize money to the non-profit the charity.
In 2002, musician she split her bounty between several charities, such as the NSPCC and a Sickle Cell organization.
"And I gave a thousand pounds to my local community centre, to their classes, because I practiced gymnastics when I was growing up and they required updated gear," Ms Dynamite told a publication.
In recent years, they donated their prize money to the community center that developed their act, as well as other local music groups.
Additionally 1994 winners they donated their award to a charity for MS after a friend was identified with the disease.
"Winning was ample," stated vocalist Small. "The money was the cherry on top but we didn't require the bonus, because we had the honor. So our winning affected another person's life."
In the past week, the trust shared it had rescued two grassroots venues in that region, by bringing them into local control.
One venue in Southampton and The Croft in Bristol were acquired under the community ownership initiative, which is funded by the arts council and music fans who purchase "stakes" in the buildings.
