As expected.
When you run a PHP script, that script runs almost in all cases as user
APACHE, often called: nobody, www-data, or just apache.
That user DOES NOT HAVE WRITEPERMISSION in the directory.
So, solutions:
1) Open up the directory to the world. (not wise maybe)
2) Make sure the user that runs php is in the same group as foouser, and
give the group writepermission.
3) Make a new directory in /home/foouser/public_html/forapache with:
drwx------ apache apache
or something that suits your needs.
