Blessed Rogerio da Todi or Rugerio or Roger of Todi (died 5 January 1236) was a Roman Catholic monastic leader, one of the 12 early companions of Saint Francis of Assisi.[1]

He was born and died in Todi. He took the habit of St Francis in 1216. He was a friend and helper for the blessed Philippa Mareri.[2] He is sometimes confused in some manuscripts with Richer delle Marche, another follower of Francis.
