So you're logging in as the apache user?
I think that means there is a user named user, which in the RH/fedora
scheme of one group per user would also be in group user and the default
0022 umask will make everything r/w by group as well as user. So, if you
give the home directory group rwx permissions (or at least x to access
the contents), and add other users to the individual's group, everyone
in the group now has full access to the files. This scheme will work
to give apache access to the public_html directory but may be overkill.
You may not want apache to have write access unless you are running web
applications that need to store data there.
