That is easy, if I read your question correctly.

Lets say you have users A, B, C, D.

Set up a new group, say Newgroup in the /etc/group(s)
file. In that file, add A, B, C D to that group.

On the directories, give the appropriate permission
to allow the access you want to that group.

Details are in all standard UNIX books. Hope this helps.
