Not sure without looking whether you can use Finder for this, but you can
use 'do shell script' to call chmod (on which see man chmod for details).
You can store an administrator password in a script, but it's probably not a
good idea since it sorta defeats the purpose of having password security in
the first place.

Can you not just use /Users/Shared?
