Rodulfo del Valle, a.k.a., Don Fito, (1871, Ponce, Puerto Rico–1948) was Mayor of Ponce, Puerto Rico, from 1918 to 1920.

Del Valle "was a man that loved his hometown and was loved by his peers." He was a member of the Liberal Reformist Party (later the Puerto Rican Autonomist Party) in 1887 representing the town of Isabela. Del Valle worked for the autonomy of Puerto Rico from both Spain and, later, from the United States. In the Ponce Municipal Government, del Valle served as Commissioner of Public Service and Municipal Treasurer.

Del Valle died in Ponce in 1948. A public school in Ponce was named after him.
