Here's what I did that ended up working: Created a domain account for each user who needs ftp access, and a domain group of ftp users. Added each user to the ftp users group. Created a share on the local machine directory (where the content is). Created a virtual directory on the ftp server to the upload folder, and granted write access (read only access was already there via a virtual directory; an upload virtual directory was created within the read only one). Enabled Full Control sharing for the ftp users group on the share. Enabled Read and Execute NTFS permissions on the share directory for the ftp users group. Enabled Modify NTFS permissions for the ftp users group on the upload folder.
Each user can now add/delete from the upload folder, and read only from the rest of the folders.

What I'd like to do is create one particular writeable directory that everyone can move files to. The shared directory is on a different machine from the IIS one, and the users have been set up locally on the IIS machine. So far everyone can log in and download without issue. My question is about what permissions are required to allow the users writeable access to this one directory, but not any of the others they can see. I can't just add their usernames to the NTFS permissions because the users are on the IIS box and the share is on this local box. I tried adding a share to the upload directory and granting permissions that way, I've tried creating a duplicate username/password on the local machine and granting permissions that way...nothing is working and I'm not sure which direction to take. How does one enable writeable access to one directory, but not the others, for an ftp server set up in this manner?
