Lindsay Lohan's father says she is "really enjoying" her community service.

Michael Lohan claims the 'Mean Girls' star - who began her community service for a DUI conviction (driving under the influence) at a Los Angeles'American Red Cross blood services facility blood donor centre on Monday - has always wanted to do charity work.

Michael told People magazine, "I asked her how it was going and she said she is really enjoying it. She's happy. When she was younger I had her at hospitals, visiting cancer patients and sick kids. I know she wants to do stuff like this, mission work."

Lindsay received the mandatory minimum sentence of four days in jail after being convicted of DUI for the second time. Prosecutors agreed to reduce this to two days if she served 10 days of community service.

The 21-year-old actress has already served one day after the authoritiesgave her credit for the time she spent in custody following her July arrest.She has until January to complete the remaining 24 hours of her jailsentence.

Lindsay - who checked out of Utah's Cirque Lodge rehab centre on October 5 after a stay of over two months - was also placed on three years probation and must complete an 18-month alcohol education programme as part of her plea bargain.
