what type of tub
size of tub
nedds to be able to be filtered and heated if anyone has any ideas please comment thanks guppyguy1234

Any tub will do. Preferably a large one. About 3 feet long and maybe 1 1/2 feet wide.  Make sure its pretty deep, guppies tend to jump a little.
 
As far as filtration you don't have to, but I would highly recommend it.  They will poop a lot, they are fish.  I would definitely buy a heater.  Keep the water at about 74-76 degrees Fahrenheit. That is when I have seen my guppies breed the best.
 
Good luck! That is way cool that your community is doing that!

I just use plastic food grade containers as tanks, in fact some probably aren't even food grade
 
The big clear stacking/storage boxes work as well
